( ) I bought this book when I saw it in the bookstore because I read a lot of Russian, including Soviet era, fiction, and I was intrigued that this collection included stories by writers I knew (such as Bulgakov and Krzhizhanovsky) as well as authors I was unfamiliar with. These writers were taking a chance by not toeing the party line about realistic fiction, and in fact many of these stories were not published in the USSR during the authors' lifetimes and one author, was killed in the 1937 purges. However, although some of the stories were enjoyably creepy and thought-provoking, I guess it takes a lot for me to appreciate tales of the supernatural. I kept on reading because each story was different (although two involved people emerging from mirrors and pushing the "real" person into the mirror), and I kept hoping I would like them more. I believe this is a case of my personal taste, and that the stories would be much more compelling for someone who likes this kind of fiction more than I do. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
At a time of revolution and civil war, hardship and deprivation, the supernatural genres provided means for a number of Russian writers to explore the dark underside of the machine age and the new political order. Through the traditional Gothic repertoire of ghosts, insanity, obsession, retribution and terror, this collection conveys the turbulence and dissonance of life in Russia in these years.
