title: <b>Något betydelsefullt: Leonid Dobyčins möten bortom orden i den sovjetiska samtiden</b> [Something Important: Leonid Dobyčin’s Encounters Beyond Words in Soviet Times]
abstract: This thesis studies the 1931 short story collection Portret [The Portrait] by the Russian author Leonid Ivanovich Dobychin (1894-1936?). My main argument is that the principal theme in Dobychin's writings arises out of the complexities of human encounters.
