Pilgrimage

Ivan Sergeevich Shmelev (1873–1950) — a writer whose work became an anthem of the lost Russia. In his works, he recreated the world of pre-revolutionary Orthodoxy — simple, warm, and infinitely dear to the heart. «Pilgrimage» — a touching novella... about little Vanya's pilgrimage to the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. The road, filled with miracles and encounters, becomes a path to God for the boy. The monastery itself appears as «heaven on earth», where even the air seems blessed. The book also includes: the novella «The Unquenchable Cup» — the story of the serf artist Ilya Sharonov, whose miraculous icon heals people; the essay «Old Valaam» about a visit to the Valaam Monastery and the tale «Christmas in Moscow», inspired by childhood memories of celebrating Christmas with family.
