It explores a fascinating transformation in narrative art, where authors like Pushkin, Lermontov, and Gogol abandoned poetry for the prose, paving the way for a new era of realism. This insightful examination takes a closer look at six influential authors from the grand era of prose realism: Goncharov, Turgenev, Leskov, Tolstoy, Saltykov-Shchedrin, and Dostoevsky. The book offers a comprehensive account of these remarkable writers, shedding light on their contributions to Russian literature. Additionally, it appraises the decadent prose of the earlier Soviet era, delves into the school of Socialist Realism, and pays homage to the iconic novel Doctor Zhivago. Throughout this captivating journey, the theme of the writer's unwavering struggle against critical pressure and State interference emerges as a recurring motif, adding depth and complexity to the narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 403g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367550837\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henry Gifford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104773697786,"sku":"9780367550837","price":31.22,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_1e4aa255-fc01-4f3e-b4e8-36198d9d89ef.jpg?v=1668192713","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-novel-in-russia-from-pushkin-to-pasternak-9780367550837","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
