Conference/CFP: Varlam Shalamov in the Context of Contemporaneity
Vladimir Dahl Russian State Literary Museum, Moscow
Vladimir Dahl Russian State Literary Museum organizes the Conference dedicated to the Russian writer Varlam Shalamov and invites proposals on the works and life of Shalamov in the context of literature and arts of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
