Selected Works (Two Volume Set)

Alexander Nikolayevich Ostrovsky (1823–1886) — Russian playwright whose work laid the foundation for the development of the Russian national theater in its modern understanding. The new concept of theatrical production was based on the creation of absolute conventionality, reflecting characters... through the peculiarities of their speech and the refinement of roles, since, in the writer's opinion, a play can be read, but the audience comes to the theater to see unparalleled acting. Ostrovsky's plays reflect the entire color of Russian life: in the diversity of types and fates, domestic and psychological nuances — in the entire originality of the national character and way of life.

The two-volume set includes the most famous plays of the playwright written between 1850 and 1884.
