Kataev's Werther

Dear Colleagues,

I've run across a reference to a Valentin Kataev novel that was supposedly
serialized in a Belgrade journal (sorry, the name isn't in the source) in the
early 1980s. The novel's title is given in Serbo-Croatian as *Werter je vec
napisan*, which should be something like *Werther Has Already Been Written." I
am unfamiliar with this work in Russian and do not find it in this form in
Kataev's published collected works.

I'd like to find the original if possible. If anyone has an idea what the
original title might have been, based on such a translation into Sr-Cr, please
send it to me off-list.

Thanks very much.

Russell Valentino
