![]() | This article contains a translation of Пелевин, Виктор Олегович from ru.wikipedia. |
During an interview he talked about his study as aeronautical enginner and not elettromechanical.
This article doesn't mention the collection of short stories "The Blue Lantern". One ISBN is 0811214346 — Hippietrail 18:33, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
Pelevin is not a buddhist.
I'd like to see a proof confirming wheather Pelevin is or is not a Buddhist. The current version of the article does not provide any support for the above statement. Therefore, it should be removed, I think.
From reading his books it seems more likely that Pelevin is either agnostic or atheist though I could be wrong.
First of all, I can't really say I study Buddhism. I'm not a Buddhologist. I can't even say I'm a Buddhist in the sense of rigidly belonging to a confession or a sect, following rituals, et cetera.
According to his biographers, he has visited some [you mean Russian Orthodox?] monasteries (probably in Russia). As for "original research" on Pelevin compare: Игорь Гетманский Загадки и отгадки Виктора Пелевина (Igor Getmanskij: Riddles and solutions of Viktor Pelevin). Getmanskij calls Pelevin a "messiah of Budhism" and states:
If I'm not wrong, there are some criticism towards Christianism on Buddha's.
Anyway, you two speak Russian?Have you read Empire V?What did you think?Just stumbled by a russian site in english an reporter says its a terrible book(or manuscript, or whatever you call it)

I only read Omon Ra, the English translation - but Kurt Vonnegut did come to mind. Certainly seems to have his wry humor. Bookbrad (talk) 03:14, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
