Russian-Jewish writer Leonid Tsypkin (1926–82), a doctor by trade, wrote primarily “for the drawer,†fearing professional consequences if he were to publish his fiction. In the first book on his work, Brett Winestock considers Tsypkin’s fiction as part of a transnational literary response to the horrors of the 20th century.
