I've been reading 'Master and Margarita' in Russian, with a bilingual text I made
myself (PM me if you'd like a copy.) It's a wonderful book, and the audiobook I found in Russian is also great. I'm looking for a book to read after it. I've looked briefly into the 'Strugatskie' Brothers, science fiction writers from the 60s/70s, but it didn't really do much for me. I'd rather avoid very long (600p+) books, and overly flowery language. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Edited by DavidW on 25 October 2011 at 12:30pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Boris Akunin has the archifamous 'Erast Fandorin' series (a nineteenth Sherlock Holmes-like detective), films have been made, etc. I have a dual Spanish-Russian text of the first book in the series, 'Azazel' with illustrations, etc. (PM me for copies).
For SF you can try Alexander Beliaev (Professor Dowell's head) or Alexei Tolstoi (Aelita). Other recommendations could Soldier Ivan Chonka's adventures by Vladimir Voinovich or Geroi nashego vremeni (Mijail Lermontov) or Kapitanskaya Dochka (Pushkin). Depends o your tastes, really. You can get these from me in audio + electronic form, or you can try some popular websites to search on your own. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Hi,
you could try Alexandra Marinina: there are (very good) films on quite every book, translations (I bought them in French and the original in Russian) The characters are very interesting and the stories too. The only problem : I didn't find the subtitles for the films ... Eric! ----- 1 person has voted this message useful |
