The Russian literary world was shaken by the wide-reaching reforms
of the late Soviet period (1985-91) and the Soviet Union's
subsequent collapse. During this time the phenomenon of
'alternative' literature emerged, characterized by an emphasis on
thematic, structural, and linguistic transgression of both
Soviet-era values and the enduring Russian tradition of civic
engagement and moral edification through literature. Through close
textual analysis, Adlam examines the relationship of this literary
phenomenon to issues of gender and creative authority, providing
detailed discussion of several of the most significant women
writers of the period, among them Valeriia Narbikova, Liudmila
Petrushevskaia and Nina Sadur.
