Media Reviews
'The editors' stated goal was to offer 'the first attempt at an integral study of Russian literature after the breakup of the Soviet Union' … In this they have succeeded admirably. This collection offers a simultaneously readable and thoughtful assessment of approximately forty texts and forty writers and a compelling overview of broad literary trends and developments.' Margaret Ziolkowski, The Russian Review
'This richly detailed compendium of essays will be of interest to scholars, students of contemporary Russian literature and culture, and pedagogues' Elizabeth Skomp, The Slavonic and East European Review
