Sad Comedy of Èl'dar Riazanov is written by David MacFadyen and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0773571310 (ISBN 10) and 9780773571310 (ISBN 13).
David MacFadyen investigates what made Riazanov's films so wildly popular and what - if any - relationship that popularity had to Soviet policy. Using the works of Deleuze, Lacan, and Kristeva, MacFadyen looks at how Riazanov's films relate to society, audience demand, and Soviet politics. In more than twenty love stories that have precious little to do with statecraft, Soviet or otherwise, Riazanov captures the willful inclusiveness of socialist culture.
