My friend lent me this book, and I think it disappointed him greatly that I didn't love it. I mean, I liked a few of the stories, but most of them were just portraits of unhappy marriages, and there's only so many times I can read that story in a row before I get bored. That said, I enjoyed learning about life in Russian at that time, about which I knew almost nothing. And of course some of the writing is just gorgeous - I do, after all, understand why Tolstoy is so highly lauded. He's just not my cup of tea. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

This Norton Critical Edition presents twelve of Tolstoy's best-known stories, based on the Louise and Aylmer Maude translations (except "Alyosha Gorshok"), which have been revised by the editor for enhanced comprehension and annotated for student readers. The Second Edition newly includes "A Prisoner in the Caucasus," "Father Sergius," and "After the Ball," in addition to Michael Katz's new translation of "Alyosha Gorshok." Together these stories represent the best of the author's short fiction before War and Peace and after Anna Karenina."Backgrounds and Sources" includes two Tolstoy memoirs, A History of Yesterday (1851) and The Memoirs of a Madman (1884), as well as entries--expanded in the Second Edition--from Tolstoy's "Diary for 1855" and selected letters (1858-95) that shed light on the author's creative process."Criticism" collects twenty-three essays by Russian and western scholars, six of which are new to this Second Edition. Interpretations focus both on Tolstoy's language and art and on specific themes and motifs in individual stories. Contributors include John M. Kopper, Gary Saul Morson, N. G. Chernyshevsky, Mikhail Bakhtin, Harsha Ram, John Bayley, Vladimir Nabokov, Ruth Rischin, Margaret Ziolkowski, and Donald Barthelme.A Chronology of Tolstoy's life and work and an updated Selected Bibliography are also included.
