"What a mess we got ourselves into, huh, Zaichik? Think we can sort it out one day?" (30.31)
Here, Sasha's kind new friend is not just talking about the mess they have on their hands with their loved ones in prison. She's talking about the entire mess of Communism. Do you think they have "sorted it out?" What has been the cost? You might want to take a look here for some information on the fall of the USSR while you ponder that question.
