The Created Legend by Fyodor Sologub

number9dream's review

3.0

I loved his style and that's the only reason I kept reading. Sologub is a surrealist poet, and that does not make for the most consistent plot it seems, or really even the existence of a plot. I read some analysis about the book, and it's supposed to be read as a dream? Like a series of events that are not connected yet do have a chronology to them? Also seems like it should be read as the antithesis of Sologub's The Petty Demon? I don't know, I just know that I would definitely read more by Sologub, I am definitely intrigued, but maybe not a novel next time.
