One last suggestion:

The journal Russian Studies in Literature has published many English
translations of appraisals of current Russian literature from the Russian
literary press.

Here are some that may be of interest to your topic:

vol 36:4 (fall, 2000) is devoted to "Russian Prose of the 1990s" and includes
Nemzer's article "A Remarkable Decade: On Russian Prose of the 1990s"

v. 37:2 (fall, 2001) features an article on Petrushevskaia ("Petrushevskaia and
Emptiness") and an interview with Ulitskaya.

v. 38:1 (Winter, 2001-02) features articles on post-perestroika prose and the
pseudo-classicism of the 1990s

v. 38:2 (Spring, 2002) features articles on postmodernist Russian fiction

v. 38:3 (summer, 2002) is devoted to mainstream, popular Russian fiction

v. 39:4 (fall, 2003) focuses on women writers and popular prose, with articles
on Marinina, Tolstaya and an interview with Irina Polianskaia.

v. 40:1 (winter, 2003-04)is devoted to the sociology of Russian literature,
particularly of the 1990s (guest editors Jeffrey Brooks and Abram Reitblat)

v. 41:3 (summer 2005)is devoted to "Generation Next" and contemporary Russian
prose

Hope this helps! In general, Russian Studies in Literature is a great resource
for English translations of Russian criticism on all questions of literature
from the 19th century to the present day.

John Givens
