Excerpt from Birds of Heaven: And Other StoriesHis works show an extensive knowledge of Rus sia, through which he travelled very extensively (partly due to the fact that he was one time ban ished for political reasons), and a very keen appre ciation of the beauties and moods of nature. Even more than this, however, he appreciates very keenly the hardships and pleasures of the life of the peo ple and while depicting them realistically, he suc ceeds in casting over even sordid and unpleas ant scenes, a veil of poetic beauty and of spiritual significance, which elevate his work above much of that produced by his contemporaries.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
