Crimes of Passion in Russian Literature

[michael.pushkin]

Galina Sin'kina's play 'Prestupleniya strasti' was presented at the 2002
Festival' novoi dramy in Moscow (Novaya stsena, MKhAT). It developed out of
the theatre project at the Orel strict regime women's prison. It's a
two-hander between the woman who murdered her husband and a female
professional (unspecified). For information on Sin'kina, see

Subject: [SEELANGS] Crimes of Passion in Russian Literature


Hi! I was just wondering if anyone could give me suggestions for texts of
Russian fiction dealing with crimes of passion -- e.g. murder of
adulterous spouses. I'm especially interested in examples from 20th-
century literature. Thanks for any help you can give me!
