Krátký popis

In 1920, Virginia and Leonard Woolfâ€™s Hogarth Press published Maxim Gorkyâ€™s Reminiscences of Tolstoy and it was recognized almost immediately as one of the few masterpieces of modern biography. â€˜It is one of the most remarkable biographical pieces ever written,â€™ writes Leonard Woolf in his autobiography. â€˜It makes one hear, see, feel Tolstoy and his character as if one were sitting in the same room â€“ his greatness and his littleness, his entrancing and infuriating complexity, his titanic and poetic personality, his superb humour.â€™ In 1934, the book was expanded to include Gorkyâ€™s memoirs of two other great Russian literary figures, Anton Chekhov and Leonid Andreyev. Almost a hundred years later, Reminiscences of Tolstoy, Chekhov and Andreyev is reissued in a superb new translation by Bryan Karetnyk.
