The man who they all called Yuri

October 21, 2022

YURI – You should know this Inger….. Loneliness is never personal. I could be political. It could even be associated with power and cultural authority in the way nations argue about whether borscht is European or Oriental. But it can never be personal Inger.

It was the way Yuri said it. He was still in his flight suit drawing a cigarette. He wanted to look Soviet only because he could never ever look Russian.

Inger – You’re so full of shit Yuri!

Yuri -……… And you love me for it.
