![]() As a caveat of the disclosure, Platonov’s oeuvre can now be studied without political motivations or parts of his narrations being omitted by the government. With the continuing disclosure of censored Russian literature of the first half of the twentieth century, the world has been introduced to a prolific writer whose works in literature helped influence future Soviets, beyond Platonov’s death, in the1991 Soviet coup d’état against the Communist government he once supported during the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. His works look at the world from behind the “Iron Curtain,” begging to enlighten the reader with his simplistic, yet extremely powerful words of foresight and truth. Andrey Platonov has posthumously become a folk hero of Russian twentieth century literature, who nonchalantly wrote about the politics of his time with utmost honesty and sincerity while struggling to have his works accepted by the pro-socialists of his time. ![]()
