EVGENY POPOV was born in 1946 in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk. Trained as a geologist, he made his literary debut in 1976 with the publication of two short stories. In 1979 he was expelled from the Soviet Writers' Union, having been allowed to join only a few months earlier. Until recent years he has been unread in the Soviet Union, while his short stories have been widely published in the West.
ROBERT PORTER is senior lecturer in Russian Studies at Bristol University. He has translated Popov's Soul of a Patriot, also published by Northwestern University Press.
