Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The powerful voice of David Shrayer-Petrov's immigrant fiction blends Russian, Jewish, and American traditions. Collecting an autobiographical novel and three short stories, ""Autumn in Yalta"" brings together the achievements of the great Russian masters Chekhov and Nabokov and the magisterial Jewish and American storytellers Bashevis Singer and Malamud. Shrayer-Petrov's fiction examines the forces and contradictions of love through different ethnic, religious, and social lenses. Set in Stalinist Russia, the novel ""Strange Danya Rayev"" revolves around the wartime experiences of a Jewish Russian boy evacuated from his besieged native Leningrad to a remote village in the Ural Mountains. In the title story ""Autumn in Yalta"", the idealistic protagonist, Dr. Samoylovich, is sent to a Siberian prison camp because of his ill-fated love for Polechka, a tuberculosis patient. In ""The Love of Akira Watanabe"" once again unrequited love is the focus of the central character, a displaced Japanese professor at a New England university. A fishing expedition and an old Jewish recipe make for a surprise ending in Carp for the Gefilte Fish, a tale of a childless couple from Belarus and their American employers. In the tradition of other physician-writers, such as Anton Chekhov and William Carlos Williams, Shrayer-Petrov's prose is marked by analytical exactitude and passionate humanism. Love and memory, dual identity, and the experience of exile are the chief components. Collecting an autobiographical novel and three short stories, this work brings together the achievements of the great Russian masters, Chekhov and Nabokov and the Jewish and American storytellers, Bashevis Singer and Malamud.

Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In ""Jonah and Sarah"", love, talent and magic oppose - and sometimes vanquish - anti-Semitism, totalitarianism and vulgarity. From the deceptively simple narratives ""Apple Cider Vinegar"" and ""A Hurricane Named Bob"" to the surrealist tale ""Dismemberers"" and the magical ""Jonah and Sarah"" and ""The Lanskoy Road"", the tempo fluctuates, but throughout, David Shrayer-Petrov seamlessly preserves familiar voices. The stories have a genuine feel for setting and epoch - Soviet stories work as narratives of everyday life, while the American stories offer an accurate sense of an ?migr?'s alienation. Like all good works of fiction, these stories take on a mythic quality and transcend time and place. Each carries and communicates to the reader an aura of mystery, the enigma of love, and a meeting of Jewish past and present. Whether he invokes lyrical dialogue, gentle irony, or sharp polemical discourse, Shrayer-Petrov shows that he is a powerful presence in Russian and Jewish literature. For those interested in fiction about new immigrants to America or in the psychology of Jews in the two decades before the Soviet Union's collapse, this collection is a useful read. In this collection of stories, love, talent and magic oppose - sometimes vanquish - anti-Semitism, totalitarianism and vulgarity. The Societ stories in the book work as narratives of everyday life, while the American stories offer a sense of an emigre's alienation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. These fourteen stories by the acclaimed master of Jewish-Russian fiction are set in the former USSR, Western Europe, and America. Dinner with Stalin features Soviet Jews grappling with issues of identity, acculturation, and assimilation. Shrayer-Petrov explores aspects of antisemitism and persecution, problems of mixed marriages, dilemmas of conversion, and the survival of Jewish memory. Both an author and a physician, Shrayer-Petrov examines his subjects through the double lenses of medicine and literature. He writes about Russian Jews who, having suffered in the former Soviet Union, continue to cultivate their sense of cultural Russianness, even as theyand especially their childrenassimilate and increasingly resemble American Jews. Shrayer-Petrovs stories also bear witness to the ways Jewish immigrants from the former USSR interact with Americans of other identities and creeds, notably with Catholics and Muslims. Not only lovers of Jewish and Russian writing but all discriminating readers will delight in Dinner with Stalin and Other Stories.
