Description

Russian Literature Since the Revolution is Edward J. Brown's comprehensive history of twentieth-century Russian literature from the Bolshevik Revolution through the early 1980s. Thoroughly revised and expanded from earlier editions, the volume examines the development of Soviet and émigré literature, major writers, literary organizations, censorship, exile, and the relationship between literature and political power. Brown analyzes the works of Mayakovsky, Zamyatin, Olesha, Pasternak, Brodsky, Solzhenitsyn, Rasputin, Erofeev, and many others, providing historical context and critical interpretation. The book includes a bibliography and an index.
