First Edition
Wraps. Condition: Near fine. First Edition. PLATONOV, Andrei, [Chevengur], YMCA Press, Paris, 1972. 1 blank leaf + half-title + TP + 1 leaf = photo + 9 - 375. Small octavo. FIRST EDITION.First written in 1928, but only published in fragments prior to 1972, Chevengur stands as Platonov's longest and most significant text and tells the story of the failed efforts to establish Communism within a small, rural community during War Communism and Lenin's New Economic Policy of the 1920s. Platonov presents this transitional generation as "imperfect human beings, insufficiently prepared for life under Communism yielding their place to future generations who will ultimately resurrect them Platonov's novel has a very pessimistic ending The author seems to be asking the question: who, then, will live and resurrect the ancestors in the future city of the Sun?" (Handbook of Russian Literature, p. 341). Part of what is considered by some to be Platonov's philosophical trilogy, including The Foundation Pit and Soul.CONDITION: Very good to near fine in original publisher's illustrated wrappers.
First edition, 8vo; 376pp.; in original publisher's printed wrappers, slight creasing to spine otherwise a fine copy. Platonov's Chevengur tells of a disastrous attempt to bring about Communism in a small town in central Russia. Originally written in the late 1920s, it was not published in the Soviet Union until 1988. Platonov's extraordinary use of words, reflecting both his own inventiveness and the corruption of linguistic meaning in the Soviet Union, unsettles the reader, layering the text with multiple meanings. This, coupled with Platonov's authenticity of voice gives a spiritual profundity to the novel that stretches far beyond its immediate plot lines. For so many years lost amidst the onslaught of official literature, Platonov's reputation has grown exponentially since the fall of the Soviet Union. Once called 'scum' by Stalin, he has since been described by the translator Robert Chandler as the greatest Russian prose stylist of the twentieth century.
