'Boarding School Stories' is an autobiographical book—as far as memory allows. The action takes place in a Moscow boarding school of the early 1990s, where children study in an environment of poverty and violence, but where there is room for exciting adventures and encounters with extraordinary people. The protagonist, an abandoned but bookish elementary school student, meets unexpected helpers along the way and finds a road that leads him beyond the walls of the boarding school.

Riva Evstifeeva recounts her childhood in Russia during perestroika, a time of poverty, violence, and a yearning for freedom. The author is currently a teacher of Russian at the University of Strasbourg.

***

'Boarding School Stories' is a very autobiographical book that contains the memory of the permet. Il a pour cadre un internat à Moscou au début des années 1990, où les enfants étudient dans un environnement de misère et de violence, mais où peuvent se développer des aventures passionnantes et des rencontres avec des personnes hors du commun. La protagoniste est une collégienne négligée mais studieuse, qui reçoit des aides inattendues et trouve la voie qui la conduira hors des murs de l'internat. Est-il vraiment possible de laisser l'internat derrière soi? Ce livre arrive à un moment où la violence redevient le fondement du système étatique en Russie.

Riva Evstifeeva raconte son enfance passée dans la Russie de la Perestroïka, entre misère, violence et quête de liberté. L’autrice est actuellement chargée de cours en langue russe à l’université de Strasbourg.
