Andrey Platonov, trans. Robert Chandler and Elizabeth Chandler
RaveOn the SeawallWhile Platonov loves to patch together a sentence by creating odd phrases... he follows these challenging moments with flowing elegance. Translators Robert and Elizabeth Chandler have carefully brought Platonov’s playful cadence and curious choices of phrase into this English translation ... With flashes of romance and much of the open steppe, the novel promises both the seasoned Russophile and the curious newcomer something unique on every page.
