Day of the Oprichnik by Vladimir Sorokin
It's Moscow, 2028. A scream, a moan, and a death rattle slowly pull Andrei Danilovich Komiaga out of his drunken stupor. But wait - that's just his ringtone. So begins another day in the life of an oprichnik, one of the czar's most trusted courtiers - and one of the country's most feared men.Vladimir Sorokin has written eleven books, including Day of the Oprichnik (FSG, 2011), Ice Trilogy, and The Queue, as well as thirteen plays, short tales, and screenplays. He authored the text for Leonid Desyatnikov's The Children of Rosenthal, the Bolshoi Theater's first opera commission in 25 years. Thirty languages have been translated into his works. He has received the Andrei Bely and Maxim Gorky honors, as well as the NOS Literary Prize and the Bolshaya Kniga Prize for The Blizzard. Sorokin was a Man Booker International Prize finalist in 2013. He is based in Moscow.
