Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Short stories about Russian emigrants in modern America. There are several layers of reality co-existing in LeGeza's writing. Some stories are fantastic, some very down to earth, and some sound like a fairy tales. Most are a lively combination of all three visions of reality. In Emigrants' Fairy tales irony, realism and romanticism peacefully live together. The writer has a colorful and creative language and images are bright, detailed and funny. V. LeGeza is true to the most important topic of the author's writing - Russian emigrants who came to America in the 90s. The detailed attention that author pays to the souls and emotions of the characters engages readers - washing off common armors of indifference to the fate of other people. The stories' style remains in the traditions of classic Russian prose, but is free of copying other authors, clear of trivialities and cliches, and is colored with bitter humor and kind irony.
