His only work translated into English was the novel Waltz for K. (published in Evergreen magazine, No. 98, Grove Press, NY, 1986. Translated by Kingsley Shorter. Broadcast by the BBC in 1986). It was adapted for film by Roman Balayan in 2008. His first two books were written in Russian but were never published in the original language, because, as Savitski explained, they were addressed to Western audiences. These two novels were edited under the pen names Alexandre Dimov and Dimitri Savitski-Dimov: • Les hommes doubles. – Paris: J.C.Lattès, 1979. Translated by Florence Benoit.
