"I would, without a doubt, include this novel among the most outstanding, sublime, and original achievements of a century full of literature and literary values—in the broadest sense of the term," wrote the celebrated writer and philosopher Susan Sontag about Summer in Baden. Leonid Tsypkin is an underrated classic of Russian literature: his prose was only truly rediscovered in the 2000s. Summer in Baden, one of the crowning achievements of uncensored prose of the 1970s, does not fit into the established literary canon but rather redefines it, joining the ranks of such cult books as Moscow—Petushki by Venedikt Erofeev and School for Fools by Sasha Sokolov. The novel's captivating rhythm combines the narrator's journey from Moscow to Leningrad in the 1870s with Fyodor Dostoevsky and his wife, Anna Grigoryevna,'s travels across Europe in 1867. In addition to the novel "Summer in Baden," the book includes other works by Leonid Tsypkin, as well as his photographs of St. Petersburg sites associated with Dostoevsky.

Leonid Tsypkin (1926–1982) was a writer, pathologist, and doctor of medical sciences.
