In Wingless Desire in Modernist Russia, Yelena Zotova argues that the concept of envy underwent a peculiar transformation in the Russian Modernist prose of the 1920s due to a series of radical shifts in societal values, with each subsequent change thwarting Russia's volatile axiological hierarchy. Consequently, a new literary type emerged, and envy, described as "wingless desire" by Russia's chief poet Alexander Pushkin, obtained new ownership as the envied became the envier.
