Author: Petrushevskaya, Ludmilla
Condition: new
From the author of the prizewinning memoir about growing up in Stalinist Russia, The Girl from the Metropol Hotel, the masterly novellas that established her as one of the greatest living Russian writers-including a new translation of the modern classic The Time Is NightLove them, theyll torture you; dont love them, theyll leave you anyway.After her work was suppressed for many years, Ludmilla Petrushevskaya won wide recognition for capturing the experiences of everyday Russians with profound pathos and mordant wit. Among her most famous and controversial works, these three novellas-The Time Is Night, Chocolates with Liqueur (inspired by Edgar Allan Poes The Cask of Amontillado), and Among Friends-are modern classics that breathe new life into Tolstoys famous dictum, All happy families are alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. Together they confirm the genius of an author with a gift for turning adversity into art.
