Collage 369

Pierre chases down Anatoly, the enemy, and drives him out of Moscow. Anxiety, frustration, anger, rage.....utter disbelief. It is black. It is bleak. Is there any way out of this abyss? For Natasha? For Russia?

How will Natasha survive this onslaught? How will Russia survive? The book is full of dual meanings, layers upon layers of meanings. Just like a collage. -- Chris
