Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. Translated, with an Introduction, by David Magarshack. 2005 Modern Library Mass Market Edition, 318pp. Sold together w/the Ardis 2013 edition of Dostoevsky's comic Crocodile story. Both paperbacks are bright, clean & tight, unread, & in Fine condition. "This unique collection gathers seven of Dostoevsk…y's key works and shows him to be equally adept at the short story and the novel. Exploring many of the same themes that resonate in his longer works, these small masterpieces move from the tender and romantic 'White Nights,' an archetypal nineteenth-century morality tale of pathos and loss, to the famous 'Notes from the Underground,' a story of guilt, ineffectiveness, and uncompromising cynicism, and the first major work of existential literature. Presented in chronological order, in David Magarshack's celebrated translation, this volume also includes 'The Honest Thief,' 'The Christmas Tree and a Wedding,' 'The Peasant Marey,' 'A Gentle Creature,' and 'The Dream of a Ridiculous Man.'" [publisher copy] "Dostoevsky, the only psychologist from whom I had something to learn."--Nietzsche. "THE CROCODILE: An Extraordinary Event, or a Show in the Arcade, The True Story of How a Certain Gentleman of Familiar Age and Familiar Appearance was Swallowed Alive by the Arcade Crocodile, Completely, and Utterly, and What Came Out." Translated by S. D. Cioran, 78pp. "Vicious, dreamlike, and scatological, THE CROCODILE is one of the funniest things that Dostoevsky ever wrote. In this brief satire, he reveals his hatred of communism and socialism in an unusually direct caricature. The tongue-in-cheek 'true story' follows a civil servant who suddenly gets swallowed alive by a crocodile--but he survives, carrying on his duties and preaching socialist theories from within the creature's belly. Dostoevsky is best known for his understanding of humanity's dark side, but THE CROCODILE proves he was equally adept at absurdist observations." [publisher copy] "A lucid and stylish translation . . . evocative of the wit and satire of the original; it is both accurate and fluid."--Dostoevsky Studies. Pristine paperbacks w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, square & tight bindings w/no creases in spines. Quite presentable pairing.
