La Russie des annees 1920. Tandis que dans les grandes villes la revolution bouleverse les mentalites, dans les profondeurs du pays un jeune medecin consacre ses forces a lutter contre le fatalisme ambiant. Sept nouvelles racontent avec brio l`ordinaire de sa vie, ou le pathetique cotoie sans cesse le drame, mais aussi, parfois, le grotesque et la farce. La plus mince anecdote tiree du quotidien revet sous la plume de Boulgakov la puissance de l`extraordinaire. Les Recits d`un jeune medecin sont suivis de Morphine et des Aventures singulieres d`un docteur. Morphine est l`un des plus beaux textes de Boulgakov, le seul ou il explore jusqu`au vertige les gouffres de la detresse, de la maladie et de la Folic. Формат: 11 см х 17,5 см.
"Ce qui est médiocre, dit un personnage dans Ionytch, ce n`est pas de ne pas savoir écrire des nouvelles, mais d`en écrire et de ne pas savoir le cacher". Petit clin d`œil ironique d`Anton Tchékhov, qui a publié des centaines de et ne l`a pas caché. Celles qui composent le présent recueil ont été écrites entre 1891 et 1898. Tchékhov est au sommet de son art, mais on peut trouver que son inspiration devient de plus en plus noire. Ses héros ne vivent pas des tragédies. Ils s`enlisent dans l`ennui, la monotonie des jours, la banalité. Le romanesque repose d`habitude sur la singularité d`un individu. Tchékhov réussit le tour de force de le créer...
