Ed. by D. Rayfield and O. Makarova
Moscow: Izd-vo Nezavisimaia Gazeta, 1999 668 p. [8 ill.] Hardcover. 14 x 21 cm ISBN: 095387800 Language: Russian
This is the first publication in full of the diary of A.S. Suvorin (1834-1912), a renowned journalist, publisher, and theater critic of his time. The previous edition was Moscow, 1992, 494 p. The diary is based on professional transcription of Suvorin`s notoriously illegible handwriting. His diary is a major document for the period 1873-1912. It gives many insights into Russian life, politics, and culture, and is often a tragic personal record of a family in disintegration. With savage wit Suvorin reveals the darker side of Russian ministerial and literary life. This edition uses all available resources to provide definitive notes and an index. Text ed. by D. Rayfield and O. Makarova on the basis of N.A. Roskina`s transcription of the London: The Garnett Press edition. Name index.
