Widely regarded as a major writer of his generation, Yuri Trifonov tolerated attack and admiration in the Soviet Union. His novellas are celebrated as being in the tradition of great nineteenth-century Russian writing. In Another Life, a woman suddenly widowed attempts to grasp the memory of her brilliant, erratic husband, and to understand their life together. The House on the Embankment is the story of an academic opportunist who rises to apparatchik but suffers the oppression of society, friends, and most of all his inability to make decisions.

Yuri Trifonov (1925-81) is widely regarded as a major Russian writer of his generation. His literary career started early―he was published at twenty-two, and his novel Students won the 1951 Stalin Prize―but he spent much of the Thaw under Khrushchev in the state archives seeking to rehabilitate the memory of his father, who disappeared in the Great Purge of 1937 and was expunged from Party history. In the 1960s he began the series of works―The Exchange, Taking Stock, The Long Goodbye, Another Life, and The House on the Embankment―that brought him both attack and admiration in the Soviet Union, as well as an international reputation as an artist of the first rank. His Disappearance and Old Man are also available from Northwestern University Press.

Paperback. Zustand: Neu. Neu Neuware, Importqualität, auf Lager - Another Life is an intriguing story about a woman suddenly and prematurely widowed who attempts to grasp firmly the memory of her brilliant, erratic husband, and to understand and come to terms with the life they had together. Although the story is told from the viewpoint of Olga, it becomes clear that the author's sympathies lie with the deceased husband, who, while not a success in a society where intrigue and moral compromise are the norm, possessed a passion for the truth and an appreciation for the manner in which the past affects the present.
