"...The content of this collection is timely and appropriate ten years intot he twenty-first century as a point of entry for evaluation and reflection on exclusively twentieth-century literary phenomena in Russia. The articles within would complement the texts typically included in a graduate-level or advanced undergraduate-level course in twentieth century literature and culture. Similarly, for the scholar of twentieth-century literature, this is a nice collection for personal reference." -Rachel Stauffer, University of Virginia, in Slavic and East European Journal, ...The content of this collection is timely and appropriate ten years intot he twenty-first century as a point of entry for evaluation and reflection on exclusively twentieth-century literary phenomena in Russia.
