Dialogues with Shklovsky 
The Duvakin Interviews 1967-1968

Dialogues with Shklovsky: The Duvakin Interviews 19671968 reflects the spirit of timeswhen the most dramatic events of the twentieth century were happening in Russia and the USSR. The first English translation of the 19671968 interviews with the founder of the Formalist School of literary theory, Viktor Shklovsky, this volume offers a slice of Russian micro-history that relies on the living voice of that history. Through the transcription of a six-hour phono-document, the readers will hear the voice of a real participant in events that for the longest time in the USSR were forbidden to be discussed or written about.
