Language: English Table of ContentsReviewsI squint back on our century and I see six writers I think it will be remembered for. They are Marcel Proust, Franz Kafka, Robert Musil, William Faulkner, Andrei Platonov and Samuel Beckett... They are summits in the literary landscape of our century... What's more, they don't lose an inch of their status when compared to the giants of fiction from the previous century. -- Joseph Brodsky In Russia it is Platonov who is increasingly described as the best writer of the post-revolutionary epoch. -- Victor Erofeyev, Times Literary Supplement Author InformationAndrei Platonov (1899-1951) was a Soviet writer of poetry, short stories, novels, plays, and journalism.
