Platonov's "Happy Moscow" dates from the 1930s, is short and does not suffer too much from being, in
fact, unfinished. It chronicles the life of a young women (called "Moscow") growing up and trying to
make sense of the new Soviet life where the two sexes were treated as identical. It may be of
special interest for women course members and may stimulate interesting discussion.
Recently published by Harvill in a new translation.
