SERGEI LEBEDEV (b. 1981) is a Russian novelist, poet and journalist whose work has received considerable acclaim. Orlando Figes, writing in the New York Review of books, stated: "Not since Alexander Solzhenitsyn has Russia had a writer as obsessed as Sergei Lebedev with that country's history or the traces it has left on the collective consciousness… Lebedev is arguably the best of Russia's younger generation of writers." Lebedev's three novels are coming-of-age stories in which a young narrator or hero of his age discovers hidden family histories from the Stalinist era. In OBLIVION (2011), his debut novel, a young man travels to the vast wastelands of the Far North to uncover the truth about a shadowy neighbor who saved his life. What he finds, among the forgotten mines and decrepit barracks of former gulags, is a world relegated to oblivion, where it is easier to ignore both the victims and the executioners than to come to terms with a terrible past. This disturbing tale evokes the great and ruined beauty of a land where man and machine worked in tandem with nature to destroy millions of lives during the Soviet century, and represents an epic literary attempt to rescue history from the brink of oblivion. THE YEAR OF THE COMET (2014) is a story of a Russian boyhood and coming of age as the Soviet Union is on the brink of collapse. The narrator is a young boy whose grandmothers sharpen his view of the last years of the Soviet system, showing him a version of the past not taught in schools. Lebedev depicts a vast empire coming apart at the seams, transforming a very public moment into something tender and personal, and writes with stunning beauty and shattering insight about childhood and the growing consciousness of a boy in the world. In his latest novel, THE GOOSE FRITZ (2018), a young historian is inspired by his boyhood visits with his grandmother to Moscow's German cemetery to research her German-Russian roots. He uncovers a history of repression that climaxes in World War II, which, of all the episodes in Russia's past, remains to this day the most entangled in the myths of official propaganda.
