Inspired by Primo Levi, Raynor Winn and Deborah Levy, Black Tea is a book about Russia that starts in London at the height of the Cold War and ends on a beach in Crimea forty years later. Stephen Morris combines elements of his life forged during the breakup of the Soviet Union to create a memoir based on reflections and memory. A narration that starts in England leads the reader on a journey through Russia from the White Sea to the Caucasus. Highly informed with a unique perspective, Stephen Morris chronicles the changing geography, politics and personality of Russia over his thirty years there. A reflection and a travelogue, Black Tea hauntingly explores love and identity, commitment and family.
