Description

A landmark anthology introducing many extraordinary Russian writers to an English-language readership for the first time. Fleeing Russia amid revolution and civil war, these writers forged new lives in exile, producing work that was largely unknown in the West until recently. This collection brings together stories by famous émigré writers alongside lesser-known voices, including Yuri Felzen, Nadezhda Teffi, and Georgy Ivanov. Their writing explores themes of displacement, nostalgia, loss, and new beginnings, offering a unique perspective on the experiences of Russian émigrés in the twentieth century. By shedding light on this previously overlooked period in literary history, this anthology transforms our understanding of Russian émigré writing in the Anglophone world.
