Russian literature of the XX century
In the XIX century there was the “Golden Age” for Russian literature, but in the XX happened to be the “Silver Age”. And Nobel prize winner in literature Ivan Bunin is one of its brightest representatives. You can buy the book “Curses Days” which are in fact diary notes of the writer, in the form of a beautiful hardcover edition which is just pleasant to keep in hands. Or you can buy an edition of the poem “the Twelve” by Alexander Blok which Bunin discoursed in his work with.
Admirers of later writers can remember Valentin Rasputin, the representative of a “village prose”. Rasputin wrote simply, easily but always interesting, and his works didn’t become shallow. The most famous of them is “Farewell to Matyora”.
Modern Russian literature
Fans of modern authors won’t be disappointed either. Victor Pelevin is one of the most mysterious modern Russian writers. He is famous for his conspiracy. There were even suppositions that Pelevin didn’t exist, and “Pelevin” is a literary pseudonym of some authors. Although it’s not important. The author is loved, first of all, for his literary style, not image. You can acquire a collection set which consists of a T-short, a postcard and the book “Journey to Eleusis”. The set is rare. To find it in the future will be not easier than to find Victor Pelevin himself.
