Help finding a book in Russian
« on: November 27, 2011, 09:49:15 AM »
Everyone,

My FIL and I both enjoy reading various literary works. We often recommend various authors and works to one another. I've been searching (thus far unsuccessfully) to find any of Robert Littell's books available in any format translated into Russian.

Does anyone know where I can purchase any of his many novels in Russian and in any format? All help would be appreciated.

The Once and Future Spy can be downloaded here....

If you google книги Роберта Литтелла
you'll find other options for download and hardcopy purchase. Kinopoisk has a couple I believe.

Apparently that link won't work when pasted. Use the Google method and you'll see it and
can go in directly...

Vaughn,

Thanks for the info. Both links were broken and after a quick perusal of the site it would appear those links are to English audio and or text and not the Russian language version.

Eric, like Vaughn, I've not yet been able to find any of this fantastic author's books in the Russian language.

A Russian culture/book blog, http://www.snob.ru/selected/entry/27577, has however selected "The Stalin Epigram" as one of the top 6 novels written about the Soviet period and the KGB/NKVD.


1. David Benioff "City of Thieves" (David Benioff, "The Town"), 2008

2. William Ryan "The Holy Thief" (William Ryan "Righteous Thief"), 2010

3. Tom Rob Smith "Child 44" (Tom Rob Smith "Child 44"), 2008

4. Robert Littell "The Stalin Epigram" (Robert Littell, "The epigram on Stalin"), 2009

5. Simon Montefiore "Sashenka" (Simon Montefiore "Sasha"), 2008

6. Helen Dunmore "The Betrayal" (Helen Dunmore "Betrayal"), 2010


Littell has been translated into German and other languages but for some reason perhaps it doesn't look like into Russian...at least not yet.
