| Synopsis: |
A Collection of stories prized for their craftsmanship and comic irony from Russia's greatest novelists and dramatists. The 3-CD collection features Ivan Turgenev's Mumu and 11 Anton Chekhov stories: A Tragic Actor; In A Strange Land; Oh The Public; The Looking Glass; Her Husband; Overdoing It; Talent; Anyuta; The Helpmate; Ivan Matveyich; Polinka; Chekhov's poignant, everyday dramas of Imperial Russia are here, from jolting carriages across boundless taiga, to a tragic actor and a French tutor insulted by his boastful employer. Followed by Mumu, a full length story in which Turgenev delineates with great artistry the different characters of a serf-holding mistress. The comedy is delightful and the tragedy is poignant. |
