Synopsis:

Like many of Shklovsky's works, Third Factory cannot be neatly classified. In part it is a memoir of the three "Factories" that influenced his development as a human being and as a writer, yet the events depicted within the book are fictionalized and conveyed with the poetic verve and playfulness of form that have made Shklovsky a major figure in twentieth-century world literature. In addition to its fictional and biographical elements, Third Factory includes anecdotes, rants, social satire, literary theory, and anything else that Shklovsky, with an artist's unerring confidence, chooses to include.



Viktor Shklovsky was an originator and leading theoretician of Russian Formalism in the early part of the twentieth century. Several of his books have been translated into English, including Sentimental Journey, Zoo, or Letters Not about Love, and Theory of Prose.
