Post-Soviet Literature and the Search for a Russian Identity

Om Post-Soviet Literature and the Search for a Russian Identity

This book examines a wide range of contemporary Russian writers whose work, after the demise of Communism, became more authoritative in debates on Russiäs character, destiny, and place in the world. Unique in his in-depth analysis of both playful postmodernist authors and fanatical nationalist writers, Noordenbos pays attention to not only the acute social and political implications of contemporary Russian literature but also literary form by documenting the decline of postmodern styles, analyzing shifting metaphors for a ¿Russian identity crisis,¿ and tracing the emergence of new forms of authorial ethos. To achieve this end, the book builds on theories of postcoloniality, trauma, and conspiracy thinking, and makes these research fields productively available for post-Soviet studies.
