desertcart.com: Great Russian Short Stories of the Twentieth Century: A Dual-Language Book (Dover Dual Language Russian): 9780486488738: Francis, Yelena P., Francis, Yelena P.: Books

Review: Excellent book - Great Russian Short Stories, by Yelena Francis (translator and editor) is a collection of known short stories, by known authors, but also less known outside Russia (for example, A. Grin and L. Zinovieva-Annibal). This book is not only for a dual language reader, although from the reaction of those, it is clear, what a delight it is to be able to read the original and then see the skilful and inspired translation. For people who learn either Russian or English it is valuable learning tool. However, at the same time, this book is also for those who are interested in Russia. It is a glimpse into the soul of the Russian people, their social interactions, from simple folks to complex intellectuals. The book is easy to read and the stories are moving. The book has illustrations at the beginning of each story, which gives it an added appeal by augmenting ones imagination and reinforcing the feeling of reality. Most stories are worthy of several reading. This book I recommend to young & older students of Russian Culture and History, Russian Language, and those who simply like excellent literature.
Review: Great learning tool - For me it reading is the best way for me to learn sentence formation and expression. This little book allows me to checkthe English right there, so is better than having to go back and forth with dictionaries or grammar books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very nice book for all ages
*by E***A on May 2, 2013*

Good stories. I got this book for my teens because in now days it is not so easy to find good short stories for their age. Most of present literature for teens are just junk. By reading this one they are really learning true kindness and wisdom. They are taking a turn to take this book to school and read it on their break time. Thank you.
