Druzhnikov, Sorokin & Pelevin

[Michael Denner]

Colleagues!

There's a pretty good review article (well written, engaging,
perceptive) on the above-mentioned authors - and on the contemporary
Russian literary scene - in the latest New York Review of Books. An
excerpt is here:

For the full article, you'll have to pay a bit. 

 

Since (typical for the NYRB) the review goes beyond assessing the
literary merit of the books and explores the history, environment,
individual author, etc., it is certainly excellent reading for a
contemporary culture class, or for a survey of 20th-c. Russian
literature.

 

Best,

mad
