My professor also noted that Fandorin is an orphan-- a parallel that can be extended to the modern Russian, trying to figure out what "roots" should be celebrated given the loss of Soviet identity.
This is interesting. I kind of wonder what the fact that the protagonist here is a nun 9with a bishop as the male lead) would say about the importance of the Orthodox Church in Russina identity -- this is something I am kind of nervous of, sometimes. Not in my personal life, but on general principles.
