Description

"This is an original collection of stories with no Russian equivalent. They span the whole of Krzhizhanovsky's writing career (1920-1940). The title story was unearthed only in 2012. It is named for an actual street in Moscow (Unwitting Street) and serves as a metaphor for Russian history"--
