Dr. Leonardo's Journey to Sloboda Switzerland with His Future Lover, the Beautiful Alcesta

A novel of exuberance and whim-filled with witty asides and unrestrained digressions-that deconstructs the very principles of writing and estranges everyday phenomena, Dr. Leonardo's Journey marks the highpoint of Ukrainian modernism before Stalin's repressions. Presented here in a contemporary, deft English translation, the novel is a must read.
