The Splendor and Poverty of Russian Literature
6.99 €
The collection "The Brilliance and Poverty of Russian Literature" is the first to present Sergei Dovlatov's philological prose quite comprehensively. He wrote about Pushkin and Tolstoy, V. Ufland and A. Sinyavsky, Kafka and Hemingway (as "Russian" and personal authors). Dovlatov's reviews, a magazine by-writer, turn then into literary portraits, then into sketches of literary mores.
Dovlatov's philological prose is characterized not by objectivity but by a personal tone, acrimony, humor - the same properties that characterize his "ordinary" prose. Dovlatov's texts are accompanied by a real commentary and article by Prof. Dr. I. F. N. Sukhikh. N. Sukhikh.
