Three Blizzards. Novellas of Russian Classics

In literature and culture, some works evoke a creative echo, like a pebble thrown into water creates ripples on its surface. Pushkin's Blizzard became such a pebble, keeping writers restless, and finally, Vladimir Sollogub responded, clearly indicating that it was Pushkin who inspired him. Soon, Leo Tolstoy entered the creative competition — thus, three novellas with the same title Blizzard appeared, giving rise to a literary tradition, adding to the array of wandering plots. Professor Sergei Stakhorsky spoke about the attractiveness of the image of the blizzard in literature and its diverse manifestations from Pushkin to the present day in the foreword, and he also wrote the comments. With this book, Nikeya publishing house begins a new series of literary investigations — a refined gift for book connoisseurs.
