My Life (The Art of the Novella series)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This beautifully packaged series of classic novellas includes the works of Anton Chekhov, Colette, Henry James, Herman Melville, and Leo Tolstoy. These collectible editions are the first single-volume publications of these classic tales, offering a closer look at this underappreciated literary form and providing a fresh take on the world's most celebrated authors.
This masterful tale of a young man's struggle to find a satisfying life in a stagnant, provincial town chronicles the young Misail's journey into manhood as he tries to fight the morally and mentally deadening effects of his surroundings. With its sensitivity to emotional nuance, vivid atmospheric detail, and brilliant psychological observations, this novella provides a beautiful example of Chekhov's masterful style.
