The Enchanted Wanderer: Selected Tales
by David Magarshack and Nikolai Leskov and Николай Лесков and V.S. Pritchett
Written over the course of Leskov’s career, each story in The Enchanted Wanderer elucidates the very essence of the human condition; themes of love, despair, loneliness, and revenge are explored against the backdrop of nineteenth-century working-class Russia. Leskov deftly layers social satire and subtle criticism atop myth and fable, resulting in a richly entertaining collection.
