Krátky popis
'I have always been ridiculous, and I have known it, perhaps from
the hour I was born'A man goes mad because he is happy. A civil
servant behaves like a monster at a wedding-party. A man is
swallowed by a crocodile, but not eaten nor seriously
damaged.Dostoevsky's stories inhabit similarly volcanic atmospheres
as his novels, places of curiosity and exception. They resemble
jokes and anecdotes, told by volatile, voluble, morbidly sensitive
and frustrated characters. These narrators all have a tendency to
express themselves in crescendos of conflicting emotions, while the
stories themselves steer clear of grand conclusions.Michael Wood's
selection of Dostoevsky's shorter works is drawn from the timeless
translations of Constance Garnett whose work, he says in his
preface, gives readers the best of several worlds.
