Product Description
The stories in this collection range from impossible fantasy to scorching satire.A civil servant finds a new passion for his work when he's swallowed alive by a crocodile.A struggling writer stumbles on a cemetery where the dead still talk to each other.An arrogant but well-intentioned gentleman provokes an uproar at a subordinate's wedding, and in the marital bed. And a young boy finds unexpected salvation on a cold and desolate Christmas Eve. This vivid translation by Nicolas Pasternak Slater and Maya Slater illuminates Dostoevsky's dazzling versatility as a writer.His remarkable short fiction swings from wickedly sharp humour to gripping psychological intensity, from cynical social mockery to moments of unexpected tenderness.
