But, always, at the stuffy English Bar he is treated with suspicion: where did this blond, louche, brilliant Slav come from? @3@@2@Veneering, Filth and their friends tell a tale of love, friendship, grace, the bittersweet experiences of a now-forgotten Empire and the disappointments and consolations of age.@3@
