The smell of Napalm in the morning: Sergey Arutyunov

In the stories of Harutyunov, the real world of the late eighties – beginning of the nineties appears, we again see the assault on the White House and the capture of Ostankino, feel the taste of the first perestroika sneakers and bounty, we stand in endless lines behind the most necessary. But the era in Harutyunov’s prose is picked up by the post-Modernist flair, which guesses the early Pelevin period of the riot police, and the sincere fantaser of Saroyan, and even the brutal storyteller of nosov.
Harutyunov is the voice of a forty -year -old generation, according to which the era was the most broken. For them, the USSR and Russia are like a left and right hand that are impossible without each other.
