The rich and complex saga of a wealthy Russian family at the turn of the century.Mr. Tucci performs something of a major tour de force. After a brilliant first chapter which pinpoints with deft if uncharitable wit its cast of characters, the book unfolds with almost Proustian involution. The vanished world of Tucci's family lives again in this book, intact in its baroque opulence.-New York Times Book Review

About the Author:
Born in Switzerland of an Italian mother and a Russian father, Niccolo grew up in privileged circumstances that were eliminated by the Bolshevik Revolution. His family relocated to Tuscany. In 1938, he resigned a position with Mussolini's Press Ministry and immigrated to the US. He wrote numerous short stories and a few longer works, many of which are largely autobiographical.
