russian-american fiction/memoirs

[susanna lim]

I recently taught a course on the Russian novel and included Shteyngart's Absurdistan 
in the last week. The students were really intrigued, notably with the parallels drawn between 
post-Soviet Russia and black America, and "MC Push." It led to really animated discussions.
