The Banner of the Passing Clouds
The extraordinary narrator of The Banner of the Passing Clouds is born on the day Stalin dies and is given his name – Iosif Dzhugashvili – by a hospital official. He becomes convinced that Stalin, freed from the constraints of an old and finished body, has found a new dwelling place within his chest, behind his heart: a burden he both welcomes and fears. In Iosif, Anthea Nicholson has created a unique and intriguing character: a victim of the Soviet Georgian regime which infiltrates his inner life, who is also complicit in its ideology and practices. Only when Iosif unwittingly destroys his family`s happiness is he forced to question his convictions and begin on the path to redemption.
