[Alexandra Smith]

Dear Colleagues,

Just to let you know about the latest "Ruskii Buker desiatiletiia"  
prize. It was awarded posthumously to Aleksandr Chudakov (1938-2005)  
(a prominent Chekhov scholar) for his novel "Lozhitsia mgla na starye  
stupeni". And the "Studencheskii Buker desiatiletiia" was awarded to  
Tatyana Tolstaya for her novel "Kys'".
A short report on this award is published here:

All best,
Alexandra
