Petropolis, a Sami Rohr Prize Finalist,[1] presents the American dream as no longer a matter of material success, or even educational opportunities, but of “finding a place for one's misfit heart”.,[2] and Lena Finkle’s Magic Barrel has been described as "a late-life bildungsroman that somehow combines a great Russian heaviness of spirit with invigorating humour, moving effortlessly from Chekhov to OkCupid clichés."[3] Ayelet Waldman's review in the New York Times describes hers as a "rare, indeed magical, talent.” [4]
