The Diary of a Superfluous Man and Other Short Stories

Ivan Turgenev

This vintage book contains a small collection of stories written by the Russian novelist, Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev. The stories in this collection include: 'The Diary of a Superfluous Man', 'A Tour in the Forest', 'Yakov Pasinkov', 'Andrei Kolosov', and 'A Correspondence'. Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev (1818 - 1883) was a Russian novelist who also wrote short stories and plays. His first major book was a collection of short stories entitled 'A Sportsman's Sketches' (1852), which constituted a milestone in Russian Realism. His 1862 novel "Fathers and Sons" is considered to be one of the most important works of nineteenth century fiction. Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
