Andrey Platonov is one of the most significant and original prose writers in the history of Russian literature, a writer–philosopher, whose main tool was a unique language that reflected the primordial simplicity of the world and, as Valentin Rasputin wrote, "mundane, as if consciously not rising above the ground wisdom." According to Andrey Bitov, "Platonov managed to write his texts with this, some kind of pre-Christian language of primitive nascent consciousness. ... Maybe Platonov should be read to children, maybe they will understand it easier — and in time." This edition presents the most famous and significant works of Andrey Platonov, including the novel "Chevengur", the stories "The Pit", "The Secret Man", "Juvenile Sea", the stories "Potudan River", "Fro", "Flower on Earth", etc.
