This collection includes three stories by Nikolai Semyonovich Leskov (1831–1895) about strong female characters.

"Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District" tells the story of a young merchant woman, Katerina, who is married off to a man she doesn't love. She spends every day in anguish until she meets a clerk, Sergei, for whom she falls deeply in love. Passion becomes an obsession bordering on madness, and for her man, the girl is ready to do anything...

"The Warrior" is the story of the enterprising lacemaker Domna Platonovna, who makes money by matchmaking and helping wealthy gentlemen find kept women.

"The Life of a Woman" is the story of Nastya, a serf forced into marriage. Having begun an affair, she faces persecution, imprisonment, and illness. Can love withstand these trials?
