Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
The names of the geniuses of the Russian literature of Ivan Bunin and Vladimir Nabokov are connected to us with the tongue and era, the scale of talent, life and creativity in exile. But there is another, personal connection between these writers. In the book of the Russian-American writer Maxim D. Schrara, the exciting plot of perennial and complex relations between Bunin and Nabokov unfolds against the background of the history of Russian emigration from the 1920s to the 1970s. How are literary legends formed? What stood behind the rivalry of two geniuses and how did this rivalry affect modern Russian culture? This bright, unique book reveals entire layers of unknown archival materials, including the correspondence of Bunin and Nabokov. A thoroughly analysis of painstakingly selected letters and diary entries, reasoned, but unobtrusive conclusions, the internal drama of the material and the masterful possession of them - all this endows the book with the qualities of good literature, exciting for any reader
