Stet: A NovelFugue State Press, 2006 - 335 頁 Fiction. STET tells the life story of Stet, a filmmaker from Soviet Leningrad, who is sent for his artistic crimes to a prison camp in the 1960's, and dies there without having produced much more than a single film. Narrated in an extravagant third-person voice that emulates the sound and attitude of the classic "Russian Novel,"--opinionated, discursive, soulful--the novel depicts the fate of the artist, or of the individual, in any society. It imagines a world where we do not live by our judgments of others, nor by our fear of what other people think of us. "Fascinating, gorgeous...in a dense, imagistic style reminiscent of Michael Ondaatje or Gyorgy Konrad... For the uncommon reader..."--King's English. |
