The best book by Platonov,
By A Customer
This review is from: Chevengur (Hardcover)
Geniously written and absolutely terrifying. After you finish reading, you will have the feeling that either you or Platonov must be crazy and then you will realize with horror that the world he describes has a structure and you can even see how it is making sense. Reading "Chevengur" is an experience that you will find precious and that you will never dare to repeat. Don't try to read more than 100 pages a day, however, if you care for your sanity. The main point is that Chevengur is NOT a satire on Soviet reality and Platonov does share the views of his characters. If you can accept that fact, this is a book for you. Otherwise, don't bother to ever read Platonov.
