The collection includes works by Russian authors ranging from Anton Chekhov and Yuri Koval to Larisa Miller and Marina Boroditskaia, collating nineteeth- and twentieth-century tales, as well those written by contemporary authors. The stories are intriguingly varied --an account of life in the citys infamous high security prison, a tale of a lady with a supernatural gift for repairing household devices, the story of another pitiful lost dog who nearly joins the Moscow Circus -- and together they shed light on the changing nature of Moscow society across the centuries. The next instalment in a series of successful translated anthologies of stories set in and around a particular European City. Moscow Tales combines two genres, travel writing and literary fiction and provides an insight into the lives of those who live in Moscow or have written about it.</p>...3787914Moscow Tales220232https://www.gandhi.com.mx/moscow-tales-9780191508387/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3941287/ffc98a12-4906-4e73-9f0f-a5b124362106.jpg?v=638386108732500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139780191508387_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_<p>Presenting stories which represent each layer of the city of Moscow, from the centre of power to the outer rings of desolate estates and tumbledown shacks, this fascinating collection offers a lively and varied portrait in fiction of Russia's mysterious capital city.
