This collection of Russian short stories from the 21st century
includes works by famous writers and young talents alike,
representing a diversity of generational, gender, ethnic and
national identities. Their authors live not only in Russia, but
also in Europe and the US. Short stories in this volume display a
vast spectrum of subgenres, from grotesque absurdist stories to
lyrical essays, from realistic narratives to fantastic parables.
Taken together, they display rich and complex cultural and
intellectual reality of contemporary Russia, in which political,
social, and ethnic conflicts of today coexist with themes and
characters resonating with classical literature, albeit invariably
twisted and transformed in an unpredictable way. Most of texts in
this volume appear in English for the first time. 21 may be useful
for college courses but will also provide exciting reading for
anyone interested in contemporary Russia.
