It's 1982 and Anton wants to defect from Soviet Russia. But to do so, he'll have to survive a train collision in Prague, join a traveling troupe of erotic jugglers, fall in love, screw a lot, create ballet and Commedia dell Arte scenarios, get sodomized with the nose of a Commedia dell Arte mask, find a super-strength serum, struggle to find an artistic persona, and develop compassion for other human beings: All this, while fleeing (in drag) from a Gay KGB agent and Anton's own psychopathic twin brother Vahktang who, in a Kafkaesque horror scene, confronts Anton in a Prague Fun House. Richard Wagner's testicles also play a role. For fans of picaresque flights of literary fancy like \"Candide\" or \"Gulliver's Travels,\" and for devotees of unhinged surrealists like film director Federico Fellini, ANTON'S LEAP is a must-read tour-de-force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 258\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.54 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 07, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47267067199737,"sku":"9781419692000","price":25.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/KuN1yqaunl9781419692000_97700ba1-ec14-412f-aedf-84d639edec07.webp?v=1768858047","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/antons-leap-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
