Over dit product

Product Information

'One of Russia's best living writers . . . Her tales inhabit a borderline between this world and the next.' -- The New York Times At first glance, the stories in The New Adventures of Helen seems simple, even child-like, but a deep reading reveals satire and darkness manifested through classic fairy tale tropes characteristically upended by Petrushevskaya. These 'adult fairy tales' ask deep questions about gender, love, history, memory, and the future, taking place in times between history and the now. These stories, quirky but yet inspired by a confident hopefulness, will inspire and provoke English-speaking readers across the globe.

Reviews
"We are likely to hear a lot more of this woman. Some October, perhaps, from the Nobel Prize committee." --The Nation "One of Russia's best living writers . . . Her tales inhabit a borderline between this world and the next." --The New York Times Book Review "Petrushevskaya, now seventy-six and finally attracting the readership she deserves, [has] a ringleader's calm mastery of the absurd." --The New Yorker "Petrushevskaya writes instant classics." --The Daily Beast "Petrushevskaya is the Tolstoy of the communal kitchen. . . . She is not, like Tolstoy, writing of war, or, like Dostoevsky, writing of criminals on the street, or, like poet Anna Akhmatova or novelist Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, noting the extreme suffering of those sent to the camps. Rather, she is bearing witness to the fight to survive the everyday. . . . [She is] dazzlingly talented and deeply empathetic." --Slate "This celebrated Russian author is so disquieting that long after Solzhenitsyn had been published in the Soviet Union, her fiction was banned--even though nothing about it screams 'political' or 'dissident' or anything else. It just screams." --Elle "Her suspenseful writing calls to mind the creepiness of Poe and the psychological acuity (and sly irony) of Chekhov." --More "Petrushevskaya's fiction [offers] a glimpse of what it means to be a human being, living sometimes in bitter misery, sometimes in unexpected grace." --Jenny Offill, The New York Times Book Review "The fact that Ludmilla Petrushevskaya is Russia's premier writer of fiction today proves that the literary tradition that produced Dostoyevsky, Gogol, and Babel is alive and well." --Taylor Antrim, The Daily Beast "What distinguishes the author is her compression of language, her use of detail and her powerful visual sense." --Time Out New York "A master of the Russian short story." --Olga Grushin, author of The Dream Life of Sukhanov "There is no other writer who can blend the absurd and the real in such a scary, amazing and wonderful way." --Lara Vapnyar, author of There Are Jews in My House "One of the greatest writers in Russia today and a vital force in contemporary world literature." --Ken Kalfus, author of A Disorder Peculiar to the Country "A master of the short story form, a kindred spirit to writers like Angela Carter and Yumiko Kurahashi." --Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble, Magic for Beginners, and Stranger Things Happen "In her best work Petrushevskaya steers a sure course between neutrally recording the degraded life of the Soviet-era urban underclass and ratcheting up the squalor of that life for the mere pleasure of it. She does so by the steadiness of her moral compass and the gaiety of her prose." --J. M. Coetzee, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature
