Paperback. Etat : Fair. The essential entries from Dostoevsky's complete Diary, called his boldest experiment in literary form, are now available in this abridged edition; it is a uniquely encyclopedic forum of fictional and nonfictional genres. A Writer's Diary began as a column in a literary journal, but by 1876 Dostoevsky was able to bring it out as a complete monthly publication with himself as an editor, publisher, and sole contributor, suspending work on The Brothers Karamazov to do so. The Diary's radical format was matched by the extreme range of its contents. In a single frame it incorporated an astonishing variety of material: short stories; humorous sketches; reports on sensational crimes; historical predictions; portraits of famous people; autobiographical pieces; and plans for stories, some of which were never written while others appeared later in the Diary itself. A range of authorial and narrative voices and stances and an elaborate scheme of allusions and cross-references preserve and present Dostoevsky's conception of his work as a literary whole. Selected from the two-volume set, this abridged edition of A Writer's Diary appears in a single paperback volume, along with a new condensed introduction by editor Gary Saul Morson.…

He was awarded the 1970 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature". His nonfiction work "The Gulag Archipelago" "amounted to a head-on challenge to the Soviet state" and sold tens of millions of copies.' (Wiki) ***First impression of the first UK edition.

Paper Back. Etat : New. ''Man is mystery,'' Dostoevsky writes, ''The mystery must be solved, and even if you spend your whole life attempting to solve it, do not say you have wasted your time. I occupy myself with this mystery, because I want to be a man.'' Dostoevsky's immense and chaotic novels are his attempt to understand this mystery through his life, through writing. Remarkable in comparison to many other great Russian writers, he did not create caricatures of people and did not invent fanciful situations in order to apprehend truths, but sank himself deeply into his existence -- its perils and emotions, failures and successes, with a far greater sense of reality -- describing men and women as they are. He was engaging a real struggle between a real Christ and a real nihilism. The diaries are the place of his ruminations, where he connects the mind that is utterly free in the construction of the worlds of his fiction, to everyday occurrences, the lives of friends and family, fellow writers and artists, his emotions, and thousands of drafts of writing. Here is Dostoevsky in all his complexity, puzzling out, agonizing over what must be said, annotated by Kenneth Lantz. Volume 2 of 2, 644 pp.…

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. First UK edition, first impression with '1' on copyright page. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely red jacket and spine, corners slightly bruised, some slight yellowing and faint spotting to page block, some very slight damp cockling to prelims, not price clipped (£16.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg copy. 375pp. After years of living in exile, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1918-2008), returned to Russia in 1994 and published a series of eight powerfully paired stories. These groundbreaking stories, interconnected and juxtaposed using an experimental method Solzhenitsyn referred to as 'binary', join Solzhenitsyn's already available work as some of the most powerful literature of the twentieth century. With Soviet and post Soviet life as their focus, they weave and shift inside their shared setting, illuminating the Russian experience under the Soviet regime. The most eloquent and acclaimed opponent of government oppression, Solzhenitsyn was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970, and his work continues to receive international acclaim. Available for the first time in English 'Apricot Jam and Other Stories' is a striking example of Solzhenitsyn's singular style and only further solidifies his place as a true literary giant. Quite a scarce book. Jacket by Rafaella Romaya (illustrateur).…
