People around the world love great short stories, with the best writers capable of putting different kinds of emotions into so few words. You can see the mist in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and get the creeps from Edgar Allan Poes The Raven. But the most renowned short story writers in history called Russia home. Nikolai Gogol was a forerunner of Poes in macabre and Surrealism, while Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) is considered to be one of the greatest writers in history, particularly in the genre of short stories.

This edition of The Best Russian Short Stories, is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with pictures of the authors.
