About this book
Best known for the poisonous provincial world of The Little Demon, Fyodor Sologub was also a patient miniaturist, and this collection gathers the short fiction in which his Symbolist vision shows most clearly. His tales move between plain realism and dream, often turning on children, grief, and the small cruelties of ordinary people. In the title story a family circles its loss inside an old house; elsewhere the everyday tilts toward the uncanny and the deathly, lit throughout by Sologub's cold and exact prose. Drawn from the height of the Russian Silver Age, these stories reveal a writer fascinated by the thin membrane between the living and the dead.
