Frigate "Pallada"
6.99 €
In the middle of the XIX century Russia was in a hurry to establish relations with Japan, and the frigate "Pallada" went to the Land of the Rising Sun for this very purpose. Forty-year-old I.A. Goncharov, until then always preferred to drink tea with jam in a cozy room, suddenly by some miracle remembered his childhood passion for "sea stories" and went on a voyage as a secretary to Admiral E.V. Putyatin, the head of the mission. And thanks to this circumstance, Russian literature was enriched with fascinating travel notes of the outstanding Russian writer - educated, attentive, sharp on the tongue, who saw and described the most exotic places of the world: Madeira, Cape Town, Java, Singapore, Shanghai and Japan ....
For a wide range of readers.
