Inhaltsangabe:

No other contemporary novel provides such clear insight into the Russian mind and way of life as Andrei Bitov's Pushkin House. First published in the United States in 1987 and highly praised for its inventiveness, Pushkin House is a contemporary literary masterpiece. Though the novel's focus is a love affair between Lyova and Faina, the novel's true subject is an investigation of the corruption of Soviet intellectual life and history. Working within many of the confines imposed upon him during the Soviet regime, Bitov ingeniously draws upon Russian literary models, especially that of Nabokov, in order to parody and satirize the stifling society about him, as well as Russian literary tradition.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren: Andrei Bitov is the author of "Pushkin House", "Captive of the Caucasus", and "The Monkey Link", among other works. He is a cofounder of the Russian PEN club and has received numerous awards and honors, including being named a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government. He lives in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Susan Brownsberger, praised as "learned and resourceful" by the New York Times, specializes in translating Russian literature to English. She has translated works such as M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin's Story of a Town, Vladimir Voinovich's The Fur Hat, Yuz Aleshkovsky's The Hand, Or the Confession of the Executioner, and Andrei Bitov's Pushkin House.
