Andrei Bitov (1937–2018) — prose writer, poet, screenwriter, and educator, one of the founders of postmodernism. Author of the books "Flying Monks", "Life in Windy Weather", "Man in the Landscape", and others.
Andrei Bitov's "Pushkin House" was called a classic of...
postmodernism, the first Russian philological novel, a museum-novel, an epoch-making work... Written in 1964 as the first anti-textbook on literature, it long "circulated in lists" and was first published in the USA in 1978. It immediately became a cult book of the generation, translated into many languages of the world.
The main character of the novel, Lev Odoevtsev, a hereditary philologist, heir to a glorious surname, thinks of himself and those around him through the prism of Russian classics. But times and morals have changed significantly, and no one has explained to Lev how to live in Petersburg in the mid-20th century, while family, friends, and women demand actions and decisions from him... "Both Russian literature and Petersburg (Leningrad), and Russia — all this is somehow the PUSHKIN HOUSE without its curly lodger" (Andrei Bitov).
