Fiction: “Knock Knock” by Lily Hyde

 

To knock, стучать: to inform on someone (Russian slang)

A disturbing Stranger’s Guide, a longish short story about Life in Crimea, when you’re surrounded by paid informants and people who are torn between making a living or making a stand or going away. Read Knock Knock by Lily Hyde.
