About this product

Product Information

Andrei Egunov-Nikolev's Beyond Tula is an uproarious romp through the earnestly boring and unintentionally campy world of early Soviet "production" prose, with its celebration of robust workers heroically building socialism. Combining burlesque absurdism and lofty references to classical and Russian High Modernist literature with a rather tongue-in-cheek plot about the struggles of an industrializing rural proletariat, this "Soviet pastoral" actually appeared in the official press in 1931 (though it was quickly removed from circulation). As a renegade classics scholar, Egunov was aware of the expressive potential latent in so-called "light genres"-- Beyond Tula is a modernist pastoral jaunt that leaves the reader with plenty to ponder.

Reviews
"The best way to think of [ Beyond Tula ] is as a kind of layer cake, abook that tries to be an Ancient Greek romance, a Soviet-era production novel,a summer idyll, a parody of various 19th-century Russian tropes and ideas, asour analysis of human nature, and a homoerotic buddy story, all at the sametime . It skips from satire to parody to music-hall comedy (the charactersare constantly singing snatches of popular romances) in a way that is dizzyingto read and must have been a riot to translate. (Ainsley Morse's translation isimpeccable: enjoyable, coherent, inventive, and at times very funny.) ... BeyondTula is a fine addition to the subgenre of Lucianian satires about nothingmuch, about mooching and musing, alongside Diderot's Jacques the Fatalist or Flaubert's Bouvard et Pécuchet . We are lucky to have it in aforthright and laugh-out-loud funny English translation that pops and bubbles."--James Womack, Los Angeles Review of Books

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
