In this collection of Russian stories, editor and compiler Thomas Seltzer selects from a range of the best examples of 19th and early 20th century Russian literature. As a survey of famous authors at the height of the powers, as well as some writers who have been unjustly neglected, this anthology is indispensable. (Summary by Nullifidian)
“Everything is subordinated to two main requirements–humanitarian ideals and fidelity to life. This is the secret of the marvellous simplicity of Russian literary art.”–THOMAS SELTZER.
