One of the few writers for example, like the novelist, short story writer and essayist, Yevgeny Zamyatin (1884–1937), did not fully devote his writing career into experimenting with Russian avant-garde art, while instead, he decided of advocating and praising for the avant-garde movement, as a resistance to the becoming censorship of independent literary ideas in published and purchasable books in the U.S.S.R. He gave form for his ideas by writing books and pamphlets about the negatives of the singular ideology which was the state sponsored "Social Realism" and his opposition towards it.
