The book examines prominent literary works from the past two
decades by Russian women writers dealing with the Soviet past. It
explores works such as Daniel Stein, Interpreter by Ludmilla
Ulitskaya, The Time of Women by Elena Chizhova, Secondhand Time:
The Last of the Soviets by Svetlana Alexievich, and In Memory of
Memory by Maria Stepanova, and uncovers connecting thematic
structures and features. Focusing on the concepts of displacement
and postmemory, the book shows how these works have given voice to
those on the margins of society and of 'great history' whose
resistance was often silent. In doing so, these women writers
portray the everyday experiences and trauma of displaced women and
girls during the second half of the twentieth century. This study
offers new insights into the importance of these women writers'
work in creating and preserving cultural memory in post-Soviet
Russia.
