Abstract

Abstract This paper analyses the reception of Babi Yar: A Document in the Form of a Novel outside the USSR (England, United States, France). Actually, the censored version of the novel was more critically acclaimed than its full version published after Kuznetsov’s defection to the West. The poor reception may be partly due to the fact that Babi Yar did not match the canon of Holocaust literature.
