So, Kirkus Reviews finally weighed in on my sturgeon-fueled existential comedy, Of Sturgeon and Carrie Bradshaw. Their verdict?

“GET IT.”
That’s it. Two words. No elaborate rating, no gold stars. Just a gently authoritative nudge that says, “Go on, you might actually like this weird little thing.”

They also called it:

“A broad novelistic commentary on Russian life with an absurdist edge.”
And said the Carrie Bradshaw thread was “amusingly appropriate.” Which, frankly, is all I ever hoped for in life or literature.

So if you've ever wondered what happens when an unemployed journalist, an illegal fishing scheme, and a glitching TV channeling HBO collide on the shores of Lake Baikal… well, apparently Kirkus thinks you should find out.
