Alexander Kuprin

A contemporary of Lev Tolstoy and Anton Chekhov, Alexander Kuprin (1870-1938) was an outstanding prose-writer of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. This collection includes five of his better-known stories, `Olesya`, `The Gambrinus`, `Emerald`, `Moloch`, which brought Kuprin literary fame, and the writer`s greatest artistic achievement, the long story `The Garnet Bracelet`. `Love has a thousand facets, and each has its own light, its own grief, its own happiness and fragrance. Kuprin`s`The Garnet Bracelet` is among the most fragrant and positive love stories, and also the saddest`, wrote Konstantin Paustovsky.
