Literature: Sergei Shikalov about Russia, its dreams of freedom and its spirits

One autumn evening, a thirty-year-old Russian man is haunted by ghosts. Ghosts of his youth and everyone else: those who once believed that their country no longer placed them in the category of the dangerous species, the “sexual perverts.”

He describes a Russia little known to Westerners, a progressive Russia that believed in human rights and free love for a decade…

Guest : Sergei Shikalov, Born in Russia in 1983 to a Russian father and a Belarusian mother. He has lived in France since 2016 and writes in French. His novel “Dangerous Species” is published by Seuil.
