Description
A collection of Russian short stories spanning over two centuries, featuring works by renowned authors such as Pushkin, Turgenev, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, and Solzhenitsyn. This anthology also includes lesser-known writers like Kryzhanowsky and Shalamov, whose tales offer a unique perspective on Russian literature. The stories in this collection were written in response to various social and political issues, including the cruelty of the bourgeoisie, the bureaucracy of communism, and the harsh conditions of prison camps. This diverse range of voices provides a fascinating representation of one of Russia's most vital literary forms. Published by National Geographic Books, this edition is part of Penguin Classics, a leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
