Narbikova was one of the alternative female writers to emerge from the latter days of the Soviet Union. The prose is mostly stream of consciousness and one thought tumbles into another. In this writing style, the drive is simply in being within it as opposed to a coherent A story narrative thrust. Just as in white nights there is a lack of orientation, so as within âDay Equals Nightâ there is a lack of specificity to place or time. It creates a very strong mood and is representative of that time within the Soviet Union.
