Abstract: |
Russia's transition from Soviet, structured communism to free-market capitalism had a radical effect on the Russian population. Especially in Moscow, the spread of Western capitalism and the inclusion of foreign markets created an economic boom superior to any that took place during Soviet times. Literature was strongly affected by this transition, and the metamorphoses in writing can be seen in many contemporary works. This thesis will seek to contextualize the works of Victor Pelevin within the historical and cultural movements that were in effect as he developed them. The primary focus will be to emphasize the consequences of the fall of communism and the influx of market capitalism on the literature of Victor Pelevin. |
