A chilling masterpiece of Soviet-era science fiction, never before published in English.In an experimental city where the sun is switched on and off on a whim, citizens plucked from different eras of Earth's history are left to govern themselves. Andrei, a young astronomer from 1950s Leningrad, clings to his belief in the Experiment, even as the city descends into chaos. As Andrei rises through the ranks, he confronts the chilling truth of his world: a place where free will is an illusion, and the search for meaning can lead to madness. For readers of philosophical science fiction, and those seeking a glimpse into the anxieties of Soviet life, The Doomed City is a haunting and unforgettable journey.
