Story0
Окаянные дни - это по сути дневниковые записи Ивана Алексеевича Бунина сделанные им на фоне событий, разворачивавшихся в России во время революции и последовавшей за ней гражданской войны. Книгу условно можно разделить на три части: наблюдений автора за происходящим в Москве в 1918 году, в Одессе в 1919 году и выдержки из последующих заметок, имеющих отношение к теме революции. Первые части книги показывают нам положение постоянной неопределенности, с которой сталкивалось большинство людей: угрозы голода, погромов.

Story0
It's a touching tale of a young man who finds himself without shelter or food on a cold Autumn Night in Moscow. The strong opening lines of the narrator set the stage nicely: "Once in the autumn I happened to be in a very unpleasant and inconvenient position. In the town where I had just arrived and where I knew not a soul, I found myself without a farthing in my pocket and without a night's lodging." Scavenging for something to eat around the "steamship wharves," he encounters another poor wretch, the young woman, Natasha, in similar circumstance if for different reasons.

Une nuit, une rencontre, une illusion. Dans les rues silencieuses de Pétersbourg, un rêveur solitaire croise Nastenka, jeune femme au cœur brisé. Ensemble, le temps de quelques nuits blanches, ils tissent l'espoir d'un amour possible. Mais derrière la beauté fragile de cette parenthèse nocturne, Fiodor Dostoïevski, figure majeure de la littérature russe, interroge le poids des illusions, la cruauté du réel, et l'éternelle soif d'absolu. Un court roman d'une intensité rare, où le romantisme se heurte à la mélancolie du quotidien.

Story0
Kholstomer is a work by Leo Tolstoy that has been referred to as "one of the most striking stories in Russian literature". It was started in 1863 and left unfinished until 1886, when it was reworked and published as Kholstomer: The Story of a Horse. This story prominently features the technique of defamiliarization by adopting the perspective of a horse to expose some of the irrationalities of human conventions. Kholstomer's altruistic life is recounted parallel to that of his selfish and useless owner. At the end of the story horse dies but his corpse gives birth to a new life - that of wolf cubs.
