The Enchanted Wanderer
The Enchanted Wanderer: and Other Stories | Nikolai Leskov
4 posts | 3 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
Written over the course of Leskovs 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. BONUS MATERIAL: This edition includes an excerpt from Jonathan Lethem's Dissident Gardens.

vivastory How many of the books in the "1,001" have you read? 7y
AshleyHoss820 106, so far! It's really more with the books I had read before I knew about the list, but I'm re-reading books and not counting them until I have! 😊 7y

There are quite a few Russian authors I want to dive into, they have one of the greatest and truly noble literary traditions.

Blue books because I'm in a mood 🌧 Temporarily abandoned my currently reading pile because I don't know what I feel like reading. Recommendations??
