DESCRIPTION
Their Four Hearts (Russian Literature Series)
In many respects, Their Four Hearts is a book of endings and final things. Vladimir Sorokin wrote it in the
year the Soviet Union collapsed and then didn’twrite fiction for ten years after completing
it–#8211his next book being the infamous Blue Lard, which he wrote in 1998. Without
exaggerating too much, one might call it the last book of the Russian twentieth century and Blue Lard the
first book of the Russian twenty-first century. It is a novel about the failure of the Soviet Union, about its
metaphysical designs, and about the violence it produced, but presented as God might see it or Bataille
might write it.Their Four Hearts follows the violent and nonsensical missions carried out by a group of
four characters who represent Socialist Realist archetypes: Seryozha, a naive and optimistic young boy
Olga, a dedicated female athlete Shtaube, a wise old man and Rebrov, a factory worker and a
Stakhanovite embodying Soviet manhood. However, the degradation inflicted upon them is hardly a
Socialist Realist trope. Are the acts of violence they carry out a more realistic vision of what the Soviet
Union forced its “heoes”to live out? A corporealization and desacralization of selfsacrificing
acts of Soviet heroism? How the Soviet Union truly looked if you were to strip away the
ideological infrastructure? As we see in the long monologues Shtaube performs for his
companions–#8211some of which are scatological nonsense and some of which are accurate
reproductions of Soviet language–#8211Sorokin is interested in burrowing down to the libidinal
impulses that fuel a totalitarian system and forcing the reader to take part in them in a way that
isn’tentirely devoid of aesthetic pleasure.As presented alongside Greg Klassen’sbrilliant
charcoal illustrations, which have been compared to the work of Bruno Schulz by Alexander Genis and
the work of Ralph Steadman as filtered through Francis Bacon by several gallerists, this angular work of
fiction becomes a scatological storybook-world that the reader is dared to immerse themselves in.
