Produktbeschreibung

Leonid Nikolaevich Andreyev (1871-1919) was a Russian writer, publicist, and playwright, one of the most prominent representatives of Russian modernism of the early 20th century. His work became a bridge between 19th-century realism and the new literature of psychological breakdown and symbolic human imagery. His first book of short stories, published in 1901, immediately brought Andreyev fame. His characteristic themes-inner personal crisis, the struggle between faith and unbelief, and the tragedy of human existence-were already evident in his early works. The writer explored the boundaries of the human soul, revealing a world of passion, despair, and spiritual quest. After 1905, Andreyev became not only a recognized prose writer but also a renowned playwright. His plays and stories-from "Darkness" and "The Abyss" to "Thought," "Red Laughter," and "The Life of Vasily Fiveisky"-are imbued with a sense of impending catastrophe, spiritual decay, and a mystical fear of fate. This volume includes the finest stories and short stories written over a variety of years-works that defined the face of Russian literature at the turn of the century and anticipated the dramatic discoveries of the 20th century. Andreev's prose captivates with contrasts, unexpected twists, and psychological precision, leaving the reader on the brink between horror and epiphany, faith and the abyss.
