Vladimir Georgiyevich Sorokin started as a graphic artist, focusing on book illustrations and conceptual art. In 1985, the Paris magazine A-Я published six of Sorokin’s early short stories and in the same year the French publishing house Sintaksis published his novel The Queue (Очередь). Sorokin’s works could not be published in the Soviet Union. It was not until 1989 that the Riga-based magazine Rodnik published several of the writer’s short stories. In 1992 Sorokin became more widely known when the abovementioned novel The Queue was printed in the Iskusstvo kino magazine. Novels written since 2000 have put him among best-selling authors. He lives outside Russia. In March 2022 he published an essay entitled Мoнcтpизпpошлoго (A Monster From the Past) about Vladimir Putin.
