19.99 €
The collection of the famous Russian writer Yuri Polyakov includes his most famous novels and novellas "The Goat in the Milk", "Apothegeus", "The Paris Love of Kostya Gumankov" and "Demgorodok", for which critics have even coined a special term - "grotesque realism". Polyakov's prose is recognized from the first pages - by social acuity, exciting plot, vivid metaphors, polished style, subtle irony and magnificent Russian language. He is able to combine the incongruous: satirical acuity and pinching sensual lyricism. It is no coincidence that among his numerous literary awards are the Saltykov-Shchedrin and Bunin prizes.
True connoisseurs will also find in this collection and unique author's essays, in which he with his inherent humor and frankness tells about how bestsellers were born, how the plots and love collisions of works correspond to the biography of the writer himself, who and to what extent served as a prototype for this or that character. Yuri Polyakov's books are easy to read, but they are hard to forget.
