Gennady Gore (1907-1981) was a well-known Leningrad fiction writer, author of popular science essays and novels for young people; a distinctive prose writer who wrote extensively about the small peoples of Russia; one of the early Soviet disciples of Leningrad modernism in the 1920s; and the author of crushingly frank poems, one of the most terrifying and gripping texts of the siege of Leningrad.For half a century in Soviet literature, Gore was repeatedly forced to change the trajectory of the writer's route, remembered in different ways by different generations of readers, but in postmortem managed to literally turn his literary biography.This edition includes Gore's early prose, selected short stories of the 1930s, two novels - 1929 and 1945 - and the Siege cycle, as well as a siege cycle. For all their difference, these texts undoubtedly bear witness to each other, forming a common space in which the naïve formal experiment of the 1920s and the absolute limit of language and subjectivity in the rupture of the blockade are refracted in a multitude of reflections.

Available in two covers.
