19.99 €
Viktor Borisovich Shklovsky (1893-1984) – writer, literary critic, critic, screenwriter, “leader of formalists” and “chief adjuster of OPOYAZ”.
This edition includes three works by Viktor Shklovsky, as well as a unique personal document “Letters to the Grandson”. The collection opens a memoir novel written in the twenties and dedicated to Elsa Triole (“Zoo, or Letters Not About Love”). Sentimental Journey is an autobiographical prose, born in exile and published in Berlin in 1923. The difference between the hero and the author is several years, but the first is a very young and somewhat naive person, ready to risk himself for the sake of the homeland and the revolution; the second has managed to become disillusioned with past ideals. “Once upon a time” is a book on which the author worked all his long literary life. In it he tells about Maxim Gorky, Vsevolod Ivanov, Sergei Eisenstein and other contemporaries.
