29.99 €
The fate and personality of Andrei Platonov (1899-1951), the brilliant and most unusual Russian writer of the twentieth century, a classic of world literature, is as much a mystery as his works. Collected in one volume Platonov's letters - an invaluable primary source for understanding the life and work of the author of "Chevengur" and "Kotlovan", an organic part of the heritage of the writer, whose free artistic gift could not stop neither decades of prohibition, nor the tragic circumstances of his personal biography. Before us is a "secret of secrets" and at the same time a unique document of the epoch. The commentaries to the volume are prepared by Platonov's group of the A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences with the involvement of a huge material of periodicals of 1920 - 1940s and the largest archival repositories of Russia. The book is illustrated with unique photographs and supplemented with new materials.
