Description

Book Synopsis
More than any other art form, literature defined Eastern Europe as a cultural and political entity in the second half of the twentieth century. Although often persecuted by the state, East European writers' voices were heard and revered inside and outside their countries. This study considers the effects of the end of communism on such writers.

Trade Review
"Wachtel is one of the leading specialists on Russian and East European literature. With Remaining Relevant after Communism, he once again contributes significantly to our understanding of such literature as well as its history and reception. This is an original and pioneering study." - Jeffrey Brooks, The Johns Hopkins University"
