Фантастические произведения Алексея Константиновича Толстого (1817—1875) подняли готику европейских романтиков на новый уровень, придав ей пугающий своей достоверностью социальный и национальный колорит. А. К. Толстой одним из первых в русской словесности ввел в число литературных персонажей вурдалаков и прочую нечисть. Написанные значительно раньше "Дракулы" Брэма Стокера, его повести и рассказы...

Anton Chekhov was one of Russian literature`s greatest short story writers. This collection brings together twenty-five of his best known, including ‘Fat and Thin’, ‘Sleepy’, ‘Rothschild’s Fiddle’, and ’The Lady with a Dog’.An acute observer of everyday life in late 19th-century Russia, Chekhov was a master of wry precision. His clear, subtle prose conjures up a diverse range of characters, whether they be small children arguing over a game, two old school friends meeting by chance, or lovers conducting an illicit affair. By turns tragic, comic, and satirical, each story paints a vivid picture that lives long in the mind.
The tide of change is coming. Madam Ranyevskaya`s liberal world of privilege and pleasure is beginning to show cracks, but she and her family live on in denial. Lopakhin wants to rescue Ranyevskaya.

Meanwhile, revolution hangs in the air, the poor and hungry are pushing at the doors, and the tutor Trofimov predicts a tumultuous change for everybody.
One of the world`s greatest novels, Crime and Punishment is the story of a murder and its consequences-an unparalleled tale of suspense set in the midst of nineteenth-century Russia`s troubled transition to the modern age.

But when he puts this belief to the test and commits murder, there results unbearable suffering. Crime and punishment, the novel reminds us, "grow from the same seed." "No other novelist," wrote Irving Howe of Dostoyevsky, "has dramatized so powerfully the values and dangers, the uses and corruptions of systematized thought." But...
