Presented here are 40 works by Bunin, 23 of them reworked from an earlier translation by Bowie (In a Far Distant Land) and many rarely seen in English translation. The stories, covering the span of Bunin's career, capture memories of childhood ('First Love'), strong images of nature ('The Hare'), the tension and remaining rituals of a dying way of life in pre-revolutionary Russia ('Antonov Apples'), the effects of love ('The Consecration of Love'), and the promise of death ('Night of Denial'). |
