Я вижу свою задачу в том, чтобы подтянуть русскую прозу до уровня поэзии

For Sasha Sokolov being an Artist is being a proet; therefore, the intertwining and fusion of prose and poetry are common phenomena and determine the author’s poetics and artistic world. The aim of this article is to show, on the basis of the most striking examples, how the metricalization of prose works in Between Dog and Wolf, so to outline its role and to show how it interacts with different types of quotations. (For a plot synopsis of Between Dog and Wolf, please consult the introduction to this issue of cass.)
