Fazil Iskander
born March 6, 1929, Sukhumi, Georgia, U.S.S.R.
in full Fazil Abdulovich Iskander Abkhazian author who wrote in Russian and used gentle humour to expose and satirize a variety of social ills.
Iskander grew up in Sukhumi and graduated from the Gorky Literary Institute in 1954. Though Iskander is known mostly for his prose works, he started his career as a poet, publishing five volumes of verse between 1957 and 1964.
Fazil Abdulovich Iskander, (1929–), satirical writer from the country of Georgia.
He attracted attention with Sozvezdie kozlotura (1966, translated into English as Goatibex Constellation), a satire on the bureaucratic control of agriculture.
Sandro iz Chegema (1973, translated as Sandro of Chegem) sardonically explores the authoritarian politics of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (which Georgia was part of until the USSR collapsed in 1991) and the cultural contrast between the distinctive traditions of Iskander’s native region of Abkhazia (now an autonomous republic) and Soviet influences.
