          Lisova pisnia [Song of the Forest]
              The incomparable Lesya Ukrainka (1871-1913) wrote her masterpiece, the drama-extravaganza 'Forest Song' in distant lands, when she missed her homeland very much.

Musil in these tales explores Europe on the verge between civilization and brutality, the modern and pre-modern, nationalism and humanism, and between ‘precision and soul,’ to use Musil's own phrase.

                                                              The Foundation Pit is Platonov’s most overtly political book, written in direct response to the staggering brutalities of Stalin’s collectivization of Russian agriculture. It is also a literary masterpiece. Seeking to evoke unspeakable realities, Platonov deforms and transforms language in pages that echo both with the alienating doublespeak of power and the stark simplicity of prayer.
