Product Details
ISBN: 9781847499295
Author: ZAMYATIN, YEVGENY
From the stark depictions of rural Russia in ‘Provincial Life’ to the vivid portrayal of an artillery unit in ‘At the End of the Earth’, from stories such as ‘The Cave’ and ‘Mamai’, describing the terrible conditions endured by the citizens of Petrograd in the years of the civil war, to ‘X’, a light-hearted, slightly absurdist example of metafiction, through to the sombre tones of the final story in this volume, ‘Flood’ — this collection brings together some of the best fiction by the celebrated author of We.
Key Highlights:
- Brand-new translation by Hugh Aplin, featuring stories that have never been translated into English before.
- Offers insights into Russian literature, culture, and society of its time.
- Includes works of intrinsic merit beyond their historical and cultural context.
This volume not only provides context for Zamyatin’s most famous novel but also sheds light on his lesser-known, yet equally compelling, contributions to literature.
