Overview: Albert Knout’s novel is a tense socio-psychological story about how “routine preventive measures” turn into a repressive conveyor belt, and childhood friendship into a protocol with a stamp.
Andrei is an investigator, a man of rules and precise wording. Viktor is his contemporary and neighbor, a calm family man, a Jehovah’s Witness who repairs machines, raises his daughter, and simply reads the Bible. When orders come down from above to “combat extremism,” Andrei takes Viktor’s address “as a favor” so that strangers don’t come. Everything should be quick and painless: an inspection, some paperwork, “nothing to worry about.”
But the country is already speaking a different language. Seminars for law enforcement and officials, television reports, and manuals for the media are creating a new perspective, where faith is easily renamed a “destructive cult,” conversation is renamed “recruitment,” and reading together is renamed “psychological manipulation.” The novel shows in detail how anti-cultism is presented as a “sanitary norm” and a moral justification for pressure: if “sects” are declared a contagion, then the fight against them becomes a supposed cure — even when it comes to peaceful people.
