Sasha Sokolov is one of the most significant Russian writers of our time. His first critic was Vladimir Nabokov, who called his novel 'School for Fools' 'a charming, tragic, and most touching book.' The master blessed the aspiring author. Today, Sokolov is considered a legend of Russian literature, a living classic, and a cult postmodernist writer. He considers himself a proetist (prose writer and poet). His novels 'School for Fools,' 'Between Dog and Wolf,' and 'Palisandria' radically influenced the development of modern Russian prose, revealing previously unexplored possibilities in the art of words. A brilliant stylist and subtle psychologist, Sasha Sokolov boldly reinterprets the best classical traditions, restoring a contemporary and global resonance to Russian literature. This edition presents Sasha Sokolov's work in its fullest form: it includes all three novels, as well as essays and poems.
