This book examines a wide range of contemporary Russian writers
whose work, after the demise of Communism, became more
authoritative in debates on Russia's 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.
