A collection of essays which opens up many lines of enquiry as it is-and provides many original answers." - Modern Language Review, Volume 111, Part 2, April 2016“The chief value of this collection of essays is that it clearly traces some of the important dynamics of the post-1917 literary emigration. It shows how émigré literature relates to Russian literature of other periods and to broader questions of identity; as well as countering the usual stereotypes, it demonstrates that émigré letters need not—should not—be studied as a thing apart. . . . [T]his is a collection of essays which opens up many lines of enquiry as it is—and provides many original answers. Prefaced with an eloquent tribute by Galin Tihanov, it stands as a fine tribute to Greta Slobin and the breadth of her scholarship.” -- Adam Fergus (University of Sheffield), Modern Language Review, Volume 111, Part 2 (April 2016)
