teaching a course on contemporary russian novels/short stories

[Russell Valentino]

If you're looking for primary materials, take a look at Glas:
http://www.russianpress.com/glas/.

NWU's Writings From an Unbound Europe series has about five (?) Russian
titles in it, all pretty contemporary.

For short stories, a few journals regularly publish translated works from
Russian. There you'd have to search because they'll be mixed with others,
and with poetry. Try the last few years of Two Lines: a Journal of
Translation, for instance. For more journals, go to the ALTA website
(American Literary Translators Associations), which has links.
