Hi Ben,

I remember reading Fazil Iskander's "Avtoritet" in my Russian Culture
Today class a couple of years ago. Generation gap in post-Soviet Russia.
Very accessible and enjoyable reading. Later I used it in Russian Culture
and Conversation class that I was teaching at RLI. My students were 16-17
years old and liked the story very much. I don't know however if there is
an English translation of it.

Best,
Katie
