This contribution aims to describe the relationship between the Kievian writer Viktor Nekrasov and Italian intellectuals such as Carlo Levi, Franco Fortini, and Vittorio Strada. In the novel In the Home Town, translated into Italian by Einaudi and Feltrinelli, V. Nekrasov criticizes the Soviet bureaucratic system. His literary work played a role in the political debate around the crisis of the Left in Italy in 1956, in the crucial year of the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and of the Hungarian uprising. Devoting particular attention to the realistic prose originating in Kiev (Kyiv), it is, as Carlo Levi and Vittorio Strada point out, interesting to underline the mutual influence between Nekrasov and other Kievian writers, such as Volynsky, Dubov and Parkhomov

Abstract
This contribution aims to describe the relationship between the Kievian writer Viktor Nekrasov and Italian intellectuals such as Carlo Levi, Franco Fortini, and Vittorio Strada. In the novel In the Home Town, translated into Italian by Einaudi and Feltrinelli, V. Nekrasov criticizes the Soviet bureaucratic system. His literary work played a role in the political debate around the crisis of the Left in Italy in 1956, in the crucial year of the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and of the Hungarian uprising. Devoting particular attention to the realistic prose originating in Kiev (Kyiv), it is, as Carlo Levi and Vittorio Strada point out, interesting to underline the mutual influence between Nekrasov and other Kievian writers, such as Volynsky, Dubov and ParkhomovI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
