Soviet literature from the 1950s and 1960s referencing Czechoslovakia

[Rachel Applebaum]

Dear List Members,

As part of my dissertation on Soviet-Czechoslovak social and cultural contacts in the postwar period, I'm looking for Soviet novels and short stories (or other works of literature) from the 1950s and 1960s that make reference to either 1) travel to Czechoslovakia 2) consumer goods from Czechoslovakia or 3) Czechoslovak cultural exports such as films, music, art, etc. I believe someone once told me there is a story by Tatyana Tolstaya which talks about Czechoslovak furniture, and I would be very grateful if anyone knows the title. 

Thanks in advance!
