Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, his writings have gradually been rediscovered in Russia, but with his archives scattered between Russia, France, and the USA, the project of reconstructing the story of his life has been a complex task. This book, the first full biography of Zamiatin in any language, draws upon his extensive correspondence and other documents in order to provide an account of his life which explores his intimate preoccupations, as well as uncovering the political and cultural background to many of his works. It reveals a man of strong will and high principles, who negotiated the political dilemmas of his day-including his relationship with Stalin-with great shrewdness. 410 0$aArs Rossica 606 $aAuthors, Russian$vBiography 606 $aAuthors, Soviet$vBiography 608 $aBiographies$2lcgft 615 0$aAuthors, Russian 615 0$aAuthors, Soviet 676 $a891.7342 686 $aKK 8355$2rvk 700 $aCurtis$b J.
