Petersburg Tales (1900) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781437115796)

Petersburg Tales is a collection of short stories written by Olive Garnett and first published in 1900. The book features a series of interconnected tales set in the bustling and vibrant city of St. Petersburg, Russia. The stories explore the lives of various characters, from aristocrats to peasants, and offer a glimpse into the social and political landscape of the time. Each story is richly detailed and offers a unique perspective on life in St. Petersburg, from the opulent palaces of the wealthy to the cramped and squalid apartments of the poor. The characters are complex and multi-dimensional, and their struggles and triumphs are depicted with sensitivity and nuance. The book is a fascinating and engaging portrait of a city and its people, and remains a classic of Russian literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
