About this item

by Andrei Egunov-Nikolev (Author), Ainsley Morse (Translator)

Combining burlesque absurdism and lofty references to classical literature with a tongue-in-cheek plot about an industrializing rural proletariat, Beyond Tula--subtitled "a Soviet pastoral"-actually appeared in the official Soviet press in 1931. This novel offers an uproarious romp through the earnestly boring and unintentionally campy world of early Soviet "production" prose.
