Zinovyev, Alexander Aleksandrovich (1922–2006)
Russian satirical writer and mathematician. His first book Ziyayushchie vysoty/Yawning Heights (1976), a surreal, chaotic narrative, represents a formal negation of the socialist realist novel and the promised ‘great Future’ of Soviet ideology. He complicated the quasi-scientific stance of his writing by deliberate disorganization, even in his treatise Kommunizm kak realnost/The Reality of Communism (1981).
