Explanation of the book

Section: Translated Novels


Number of pages: 338 pages


Thousands of citizens are in line for...nobody knows what! It doesn't matter if there is anything for sale, it is better to line up to buy it. Sorokin's novel boldly tells the story of ordinary people on the street joking, falling in and out of love, solving crossword puzzles, until they go to sleep and line up again in the morning in a queue as big as life itself.

The Queue does not follow the traditional pattern of narrative fiction. Instead, the narrative takes the form of a dialogue, with the reader clearly feeling everything between the lines. The novel is devoid of description, staging, or staging of scenes in the text. In contrast, the text is filled with only sounds: fragments of dialogue, gossip, jokes, and humor. This novel has been called the encyclopedia of Soviet dialogue.
