Dos jóvenes amantes, Sasha y Volodia, están separados por la guerra y mantienen vivo su amor intercambiando apasionadas cartas. Hablan de su infancia, de sus familias, de la vida cotidiana, de alegrÃas y de penas. Parece un intercambio epistolar normal hasta que el lector advierte que el tiempo entre ambos está desajustado: no solo los separa un continente, sino también cinco décadas. Ella vive en la Rusia de los años sesenta; él combate en China durante la rebelión de los Bóxers a comienzos del siglo XX. Aunque Volodia muere en una de las primeras escaramuzas, sus cartas continúan llegando. Ella, mientras tanto, se casa, pierde un hijo y sigue escribiéndole, como si el tiempo no existiera. Una conmovedora historia de amor que, mediante el poder de la palabra, anula las leyes del tiempo y del espacio.
Two young lovers, Sasha and Volodia, are separated by war and keep their love alive through passionate letters. They write about their childhood, their families, daily life, joys and sorrows. At first it seems like a normal exchange of letters, until the reader realizes that time itself is out of joint: the lovers are not only separated by a continent, but by five decades. She lives in Russia in the 1960s; he is fighting in China during the Boxer Rebellion at the beginning of the twentieth century. Although Volodia dies in one of the first skirmishes, his letters keep arriving. Meanwhile, she marries, loses a child, and continues writing to him, as if time stood still. A moving love story that, through the power of words, transcends the laws of time and space.
