Russian Dreambook of Color and Flight

In a crumbling apartment building in post-Soviet Russia theres a ghost who wont keep quiet. Mircha fell from the roof and was never properly buried so he sticks around to heckle the living: his wife Azade; Olga a disillusioned translator/censor for a military newspaper; Yuri an army veteran who always wears an aviators helmet; and Tanya a student of hope words and color. Tanya carries a notebook wherever she goes recording her dreams of finding love and escaping her job at the All-Russia All-Cosmopolitan Museum a place that holds a fantastic and terrible collection of art knockoffs created with the materials at hand from foam to chewing gum Popsicle sticks to tomato juice. When the museums director hears of an American group seeking to fund art in Russia it looks as if Tanya might get her chance at a better life if she can only convince them of the collections worth. Enlisting the help of her neighbors Tanya scrambles to save her dreams and along the way discovers that love may have been waiting in her own courtyard all along.
