Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin is an outstanding master of words, an heir to the realistic traditions of classical Russian literature. Absolute precision of detail and subtle lyricism, simplicity, clarity, and depth are the hallmarks of Kuprin's style. Kuprin's admiration for the mysterious beauty of the world and its harmony is combined with a heightened sensitivity to the pain of others and a complex palette of emotional experiences. Literary recognition did not come to him immediately. At the age of twenty-three, Alexander Kuprin, a lieutenant in the Dnieper Infantry Regiment, retired and subsequently held numerous professions: he worked as a reporter, grew tobacco, served as a superintendent on a house construction project, studied dentistry, worked as a land surveyor, and served as a psalm reader. And, of course, all these activities provided him with rich creative material, reflected in his books. This edition includes stories and novellas by Alexander Kuprin in all the diversity of his favorite themes, and a special place among them is occupied by circus life, theater and animals (in such works as “The White Poodle,” “At the Circus,” “Yu-Yu,” “The Elephant,” “How I Was an Actor,” etc.).
