Laurus is a historical novel set in Russia at the end of the middle ages, but it plays with both the form of the novel and idea of the medieval past. While the novel is embedded in Russian literary, cultural and religious traditions, it also challenges the spiritual and cultural boundaries of modern nation-states. And as a creative project of the Russian medievalist, Eugene Vodolazkin, the novel explores the assumptions, questions, and epistemologies we bring to bear on history.
