I found two good books about recent Russian literature in the library the other day:

Russian Literature 1995-2002 - On the Threshold of the New Millennium, N.N. Shneidman, University of Toronto Press, 2004, 200 pages.

Literature, History and Identity in Post-Soviet Russia, 1991-2006, Rosalind Marsh, Peter Lang [publisher], 2007, 590 pages.

I'm reading the fatter, second book, which appears to include aspects of the Shneidman. Both books put recent Russian literature in context, which I personally find valuable.
