    About this audiobook

    There were conjugal visits in the slave camps of the USSR. House of Meetings is about one such liaison. It is a triangular romance: two brothers fall in love with the same girl in Moscow, which is poised for pogrom in the gap between the war and the death of Stalin. Both brothers are arrested, and their rivalry slowly complicates itself over a decade in the slave camp above the Arctic Circle.
