Copy signed by the author.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1981 collection features the prose of Evgeny Shatko (1931–1984), a talented Soviet writer, screenwriter, and playwright whose work often explored the resilience of the human spirit in challenging environments. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the \"adventure-psychological\" genre of the late Soviet period, including the arrangement of stories that test moral character against the backdrop of expeditions and harsh landscapes. Shatko, who was also a notable humorist and contributor to the \"Literaturnaya Gazeta,\" masterfully balances tension with profound humanism.  As a vital primary source, this volume documents the popularity of \"heroic-romantic\" prose during the 1980s, published by the influential \"Molodaya Gvardiya\" house. This specific copy is especially significant for its inclusion of the author's autograph, making it a significant bibliographical rarity for collectors of Soviet-era literature, mountain-themed narratives, and the cinematic history of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44245984280618,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_9771.jpg?v=1776559133","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/signed-shatko-e-five-on-the-glacier-pyatero-na-lednike-molodaya-gvardiya-1981-in-russian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
