Bit of a shame Zamyatin hasn't been mentioned yet. If you want to see a prophecy of Stalinist conformity before it actually came to pass (posterity is much easier to write from, Mr. Orwell), check out We. Dystopianism at its best. Also props to whoever linked to The Other St. Petersburg in the last thread. Sums up the insane, mythic qualities of Peter's city fantastically. Has anyone ever managed to see some of the insane Futurist plays that Mayakovsky, etc. were involved in during the '20s? Would love to see The Bedbug, or Victory Over the Sun or whatever.
