Résumé

This comic novel sets the concept of a Stalinist regime against the quintessentially English backdrop of a prep school. The bespectacled Kahn is transformed from swot and wimp to hero and ruthless autocrat, but Stalin is eventually replaced in his affections by girls and punk rock.

My Affair With Stalin Résumé

My Affair With Stalin Simon Sebag Montefiore

Philip Roth meets Evelyn Waugh in blackly comic portrayal of prep-school adolescence. Montefiore creates a young anti-hero as hilarious as Just William, as monstrous as Stalin himself, whose rite of passage shows what happens when a game of power grows into a dangerous obsession.
