About the Author

The main achievement of Trifonov's three decades in literature is a series of short novels from the late 1960s and 1970s about the Russian intelligentsia: The Exchange, Preliminary Stocktaking, The Long Goodbye, Another Life, The House on the Embankment, and The Old Man. In them he explores human mostrar mais relationships in the problematic urban existence close to the heart of all ordinary Russian readers: exchange of apartments, competition for careers, money troubles, and so on. The novels are also a longer-term investigation, through flashbacks and reminiscences, of the Stalin period and its disastrous effects on society. Disappearance, begun in the 1950s and clearly written "for the drawer" (with no expectations of publication), appeared posthumously. It takes up some of the same themes, such as mass arrests during the period 1937 to 1942, of Trifonov's other works, but much more explicitly. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

Resenhas

Two exquisite novellas that deal with 20th century themes in a 19th century style. The back cover cites Chekhov, but I hear the slightly more expansive tones of Theordor Fontane, especially in the first story, "Another Life", which is as fine a piece of writing as I've ever read.

Handlingen foregår dels under borgerkrigen, dels i samtidens Sovjetunionen. Tittelpersonen er hovedperson, men også andre fortellerstemmer kommer til orde.
Dessverre blir lesningen vanskeliggjort av manglende kapittelinndeling sammenholdt med de mange skift i tid, sted og forteller.
Romanen er overraskende kritisk overfor systemet.

De Nederlandse titel van deze roman is Het huis aan de kade. Dit huis bestaat echt, kijk maar eens hier op flickr. Zelfs het kerkje dat op deze foto voor het pand in het groen tussen de bomen staat, komt voor in deze roman.
