This book brings together a lifetime of experiences told by a
beloved member of the field of Slavic languages and literature -
Irwin Weil. During the Soviet era, Irwin frequently visited and
corresponded with leading members of Russia's intelligentsia,
including prominent emigres such as Vladimir Nabokov, Korney
Chukovsky, and Dmitrii Shostakovich. His deep love of the Russian
people and their culture has touched the lives of countless
students, in particular at Northwestern University, where he has
taught since 1966. It is these stories of an unassuming Jewish
American from Cincinnati, Ohio who rubbed shoulders with some of
the most prominent thinkers, writers, and musicians in the Soviet
Union that are presented for the first time in this volume.
