The Life and Extraordinary Adventures of Soldier Ivan Chonkin
Ivan Chonkin is one of the most beloved characters in Russian literature. He can only be compared, perhaps, to his Czech "colleague", the brave soldier Švejk, but even this absurd hero is outdone by Chonkin in the incredibility of adventures...
and the absurdity of the surrounding (Soviet) reality.
Nothing unusual happens to this short, bowlegged soldier! His incredible exploits are known to both Stalin and Hitler, at the same time he is sentenced to execution as a staunch enemy of the Soviet power and awarded for his selfless service to the Motherland. Chonkin becomes an involuntary participant in terrible backstage intrigues and, in the end, reaches America itself!"
