Dovlatov and the Third Wave. Tides and Shallows

The book continues the investigation begun by the author in "The Union and Dovlatov. In Detail and Approximately": the watershed is Dovlatov's emigration to the USA. The forty-year-old writer starts life anew: literary connections, meetings, and complex relationships with Limонов, Aksyonov, Voynovich, new texts and new publications, the publication of the newspaper "New American", failures and returns to writing work.
