A portrait whose painted eyes will not close. A village where, after dark, the living belong to the vourdalak. For a hundred years the great Russian writers returned to one threshold - the one between the living and the dead - and brought back some of the most unsettling fiction ever set down. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRussian Ghost Stories gathers twelve of those tales in new English translations, arranged in four movements. Pushkin's gambler hunts a secret worth a life. Gogol's seminarian keeps watch over a coffin that does not stay shut. Dostoevsky stoops to the chatter of the graveyard. Chekhov watches a brilliant man courted by a black monk who may be madness or may be grace. Andreyev follows Lazarus back out of the tomb and asks what a man carries home from the grave. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Returning Dead - The Queen of Spades (Pushkin) - Clara Militch (Turgenev) - The Portrait (Gogol)\u003cbr\u003eBlood and the Folk - Viy (Gogol) - The Terrible Divination (Bestuzhev-Marlinsky) - The Family of the Vourdalak (A.
