And Other Tales
A collection of stories by

 
 
"It may sound like a startling antinomy to say that at his happiest Sologub is a compound of Chekhov and Poe. It could be put in another way: if Poe were a Russian, he might have written as Sologub writes. This is to say that the mystery with which Sologub endows his tales is never there for its own sake, but as a most intense symbol of reality." From the translator's introduction.

The Old House. -- The Uniter of Souls. -- The Invoker of the Beast. -- The White Dog. -- Light and Shadows. -- The Glimmer of Hunger. -- Hide and Seek. -- The Smile. -- The Hoop. -- The Search. -- The White Mother.
