Hi Katherine, it's not available in French on the RFI site, for now at least. Recorded in French, written up in Russian. Google translate does the usual patchy job if you want to get the gist of it. Otherwise I can help with the detail.

Since 24 February 2023, Gran has refused to give interviews in Russian; he says the only words he would ever pronounce In Russian are 'glory to Ukraine.'

Told with Gran's signature verve and irony, it's set against a rollicking panorama of daily life in the USSR. An honour and delight for this translator to bring his debut into English, and his father's legacy to a new generation of readers.
