Aleksei Remizov (1877–1957) was a singular figure in Russian Modernist literature, known for his experimental prose style, rich use of folk and religious imagery, and deeply idiosyncratic language. Die Schwestern im Kreuz presents one of his works in German translation (Deutsch), making his distinctive voice accessible to a broader European readership.
Remizov’s prose draws on Orthodox Christian tradition, fairy tale, and dream, creating a world unlike any other in Russian letters. This free EPUB download invites German-language readers to encounter a fascinating and underappreciated voice from the Silver Age of Russian literature.
