Alexey Polyarinov's novel will be released at the end of March and promises to be a landmark. Known for his "Reef" and "Center of Gravity," Polyarinov is the kind of author who successfully combines a daring plot with a meticulous analysis of the flaws in human nature. "Cadavers" is perfect for fans of post-apocalyptic fiction and anyone who enjoys the road movie genre. Set in the near future, the heroes travel across southern Russia, attempting to study eerie anomalies—the aftermath of a major catastrophe. Readers soon begin to realize that this journey is less about fantasy and more about how profoundly our world has broken down.

"The cadaver stood motionless in the tall grass. It wasn't easy to find; none of the locals knew exactly where it was, and it seemed strange: you have a dead child standing in a field, covered in salt, and you don't know where it is? But that's how it was."
