Book Synopsis The Galosh by : Mikhail Zoschenko
Book excerpt: Though little known to English readers, Zoshchenko was one of the most popular writers in early Soviet Russiaa̮ time when, as Hicks explains in a useful introduction to this collection of brief comic tales, satire was not yet prohibited by the authorities. Describing himself as "a temporary substitute for the proletarian writer," Zoshchenko wrote in a deliberately simple style, filling his pages with corrupt officials, petty thieves, and confused bureaucrats.
