  • The Fall of Paris, a novel by Ilya Ehrenburg (1942)

    Stalin Prize for Literature (1942, USSR)

    Publishers: France - EDITIONS D'HIER ET D'AUJOURD'HUI (1964), MESSIDOR (1989), Germany - AUFBAU-VERLAG (1987), BUCHCLUB 65 (1988), Turkey - SOSYAL YAYINLAR (1975), EVRENSEL BASIM YAYIN (2002), USA/UK - MAY FAIR BOOKS (1962), SIMON PUBLICATIONS (2002)

     In 1940 Ilya Ehrenburg spent some time in Paris, then occupied by German troops. His novel The Fall of Paris (written in 1942) deals with the decay of French society from 1935 to 1940, and also presents an excellent eye-witness account of the Occupation.

  • Nikolai Leskov: The Overlooked Genius, a biography by Maya Kuzherskaya (2021)

    Rights sold: Russia - Molodaya Gvardiya

    Winner of the 2021 Big Book Award (second prize)

    Nikolai Leskov (1831-1895) was a Russian novelist, short-story writer, playwright, and journalist. Praised for his unique writing style and innovative experiments in form, and held in high esteem by Leo Tolstoy, Anton Chekhov and Maxim Gorky among others, Leskov is credited with creating a comprehensive picture of contemporary Russian society using mostly short literary forms. His major works include Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk (1865) (which was later made into an opera by Shostakovich), The Cathedral Clergy (1872), The Enchanted Wanderer (1873), and The Tale of Cross-eyed Lefty from Tula and the Steel Flea (1881).

    Perennially falling into and out of fashion, Leskov is a stunningly versatile writer and a very un-Russian Russian great. -- Chris Power, The Guardian
