Kusaka

Leonid Andreyev (1871-1919) - one of the brightest authors of the Silver Age, the founder of Russian expressionism - from his gymnasium years was fascinated by Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and Hartmann. His vivid imagination and impressionable nature often drove him to... reckless acts. For instance, at seventeen, he once decided to test his willpower by lying between the rails in front of an oncoming train and... emerged unscathed. His vivid imagination and desire to test the limits of his heroes' capabilities are characteristic traits of Leonid Andreyev. A prose writer and playwright, a realist and a symbolist, he wrote not only for adults but also for children, among which his Easter and Christmas stories stand out; many of them became examples of sentimental prose, awakening compassion in the reader for the "little ones". This edition includes the most famous stories of L. Andreyev, among which are "Bargamot and Garaska", "Angelochek", "Kusaka", and others.
