Under the pseudonym A. Miré hides a woman with an extraordinary and tragic fate. Lost in the decadent evenings of Paris, she was sold by her lover into a brothel. After a difficult return to Russia, she found a lover...
through an ad in a newspaper. The marriage turned out to be short-lived, which plunged Miré into even greater despair and brought about another crisis that led her to a psychiatric hospital. Miré passed away in solitude, in a hospital ward, and her contemporary writers only learned of her death weeks later. Despite all the twists of fate, Miré challenged the difficulties in both life and creativity.
This edition brings together stories from two collections published during the life of A. Miré - «Life» (1904) and «Black Panther» (1909), as well as selected stories outside the collections that most vividly illustrate the subtle style of the writer. Miré's stories are fleeting scenes from ordinary life, filled with the author's sensitivity, gothic aura, and philosophical subtext.
