Я находился на полном орков драккаре. Почти три десятка клыкастых различной степени вонючести зеленокожих составляли команду ярла Рюрика. И угадайте, куда он несся быстрее ветра по холодным водам Балтики? На восток, в славный град Ладогу. Бред, скажете вы? И будете, вашу мать, правы.

Dans cette fable sur l’épreuve, deux frères, le Grand et le Petit, sont au fond d’un puits. Rien à boire, rien à manger, seul un sac les accompagne et l’ombre d’une mère. La fraternité se résume à l’essentiel : le Grand protège le Petit, le Petit donne au Grand une raison de vivre. La force vitale de ces deux enfants qui ne veulent pas mourir et s’accrochent au destin traverse le lecteur, marqué à tout jamais par les images et les mots de la hantise.

Milo vive con sus padres y su hermana, pero se quiere independizar. Mientras recorre la ciudad en bicicleta, visita departamentos en alquiler y se cruza con personajes desopilantes, alguien le va dejando, como pistas que no llevan a ningún lado, notas en las que se repite una pregunta: "¿Por qué te vas?". Condensando las ansias de toda una generación, Iván Hochman construye un relato con reminiscencias salingerianas, tierno, honesto y con un agudo sentido del humor en torno a la decisión de irse a vivir solo.

Sadness can be about so many things from places to people, from thoughts to actions.

When we read or listen, words can have a transforming effect. Our mood can alter in the space of a few sentences from joy to sadness. And not just our mood. These words can affect us physically, they can engage our emotions and even in their sadness bring a lump to our throat and tears to our eyes. Sometimes the relief can be palpable. Our authors, from Anton Chekhov, Stephen Crane, Willa Cather, Katherine Mansfield and a wealth of others, are well aware of what their talents will evoke. Genius has many names.

Ivan Bunin received the 1933 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the strict artistry with which he has carried on the classical Russian traditions in prose writing." Aristocrat to the core, Bunin somehow remained connected to the land and people and keenly felt their pulse of life. His acute observations resulted in the accurate and unforgettable characters who populated his writing. His love for punctuation and punctilious choice of words is legendary. Reading Bunin's stories is one of the best ways to understand the mysterious Russian soul and begin to understand one of Russia's greatest periods of literature.

When he first meets Najwa at a lecture by Siri Hustvedt—whom he’s never read—our hero discovers a whole new world of feminist thought. Determined to impress her, he sets out sincerely on his journey to allyship. His mother confides in him about the dreams she had to sacrifice because of the patriarchy, and he laments the violence and oppression women face. But he can’t help but notice that they’re going about their activism the wrong way.

'Ovsyanikov reminded me of the Russian boyars of the times before Peter the Great...The national holiday dress would have suited him well. He was one of the last men left of the old time. All his neighbours had a great respect for him, and considered it an honour to be acquainted with him. His fellow peasant-proprietors almost worshipped him, and took off their hats to him from a distance: they were proud of him.'

Scott Fitzgerald for its writing style, and Sherwood Anderson and Ernest Hemingway for its focus on moments. As the Doctor says to a new acquaintance, "Sometimes you know people for a long time and never talk about anything that touches the soul; sometimes you start there on the first conversation."
