Newly Translated From The Russian By Andrew R. MacAndrew.Afterword By William E. Harkins. 317 pages. paperback. CT107. Cover: Lambert. keywords: Signet Classic Paperback Russia Translated Literature 19th Century. DESCRIPTION - Rated 'among the very greatest novels in the world' by Arnold Bennett, The Golovlovs is one of the last - translated, but highest - ranking, realistic novels of nineteenth - century Russia. The vicious circle of greed, self - pity and hypocritical repentance perpetuated by Anna Petrovna, her children, and her children's children in pursuit of money brings disaster to bear on Golovlovo, the gray, half - ruined estate where family and servants conspire against their mistress. Anna's venomous relationship with her sons casts early implications of the ruin to follow, in which every offender grows strangely sympathetic. One by one, and with curious reversals of character, the Golovlovs fall prey to fantasy, drink, insanity, and moral disintegration, dispensing hatred, wit, and hideous flatteries. The Golovlovs is a 'novel of the generations,' which describes the fall of a house with all the scope and insight of artworks ranging from those that dealt with the House of Atreus to the novels of Thomas Mann and William Faulkner. inventory #29248 Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The award-winning translators bring us a new translation of an 1870 comic novel by Russia's greatest satirist-whose mockery of Russian autocracy is newly relevant in the age of Putin.A major classic in Russia, though not as well known in the West, Foolsburg- The History of a Certain Town is a farcical chronicle of the fictional town of Glupov (which translates to "Stupidville" or "Foolsburg") and its hapless inhabitants as they passively endure the violence and lunacy of their rulers for hundreds of years. The succession of brutal mayors of the town include such surreal extremes as a man with a music box instead of a brain and one so tall that he snaps in half during a windstorm. Saltykov-Shchedrin marries biting satire reminiscent of Jonathan Swift with the fantastical absurdity of Nikolai Gogol, imbued with his own brand of playful wordplay. A sort of Gulliver's Travels of Russian literature, the novel has never before had a translation into English that successfully captured its zany humour; this one will bring it the attention it deserves. "A new translation of the 1870 Russian satiric classic (previously translated into English as The History of a Certain Town). It takes the form of the fantastical chronical of a fictional town called Glupov (translated here as Foolstown) and its rulers over many generations, satirizing tyranny and its enablers"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
