1	The Story of a Nobody more books like this by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, Hugh Aplin (Translator), Louis de Bernieres (Foreword by) Chekhov's little-known literary gem is a profound and moving work, combining the political tensions of the day with a tale of deep poignancy and sorrow. With St. Petersburg awash with extravagant, dissolute bureaucrats concerned only with increasing their vast riches, a secret movement infiltrates one of its members into one such household.

2	Faust more books like this by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev, Hugh Aplin (Translator), Simon Callow (Foreword by) In this rediscovered literary gem, Turgenev explores the elusive nature of love, suggesting that with the loss of love comes a sense of resignation--and the conviction that the essence of life lies in self-denial.

6	The Double: A St Petersburg Poem more books like this by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Hugh Aplin (Translator), Jeremy Dyson (Foreword by) "The Double" is a remarkable work of doppelganger literature. As Dostoevsky examines the neurosis and paranoia that cripple a seemingly ordinary man, he produces a thoroughly modern nightmare, brilliantly foreshadowing the works of Kafka and Sartre. Mr. Golyadkin, a minor government official, is a rather middling man. Then one day he meets his ... see all copies from $9.80! new only from $11.95! \| SVS
7	The Death of Ivan Ilych and the Devil more books like this by Leo Tolstoy, Hugh Aplin (Translator), Nadine Gordimer (Foreword by) Tolstoy's most celebrated short story, "The Death of Ivan Ilyich", takes place at the deathbed of an ordinary man who is forced to contemplate not only his own death but the great philosophical questions that have never troubled him before.

The young Vanya Smurov is deeply attached to his mentor, ... see all copies from $12.44! new only from $12.44!
