Russian cuisine (Vladimir Sorokin, "Пельмени")

Aleksandra Zywert

Abstract

Пельмени is one of the most significant plays authored by Vladimir Sorokin. Deriving both from the postmodernist tendencies and the inventions of theatre of the absurd, this play encompasses a metaphysical reflection upon the condition of Russia. The journey through time and space (from the late 70s to the early 90s of the 20th century), orchestrated by Sorokin, leads to a bitter conclusion: history has come full circle, while future – even though exteriorly different — interiorly is identical to past.
