The collection includes stories by classic Russian writers about forgiveness. Anton Chekhov writes about a mad love in "Clean Monday," which ends on the highest note. Ivan Shmelev talks about Maslenitsa and the ritual of Forgiveness Day with everyone, close and distant. Valentin Rasputin discusses the importance of forgiveness and heartfelt conversation, Viktor Astafyev talks about conscience and love for those who can repent for their sins, whether intentional or unintentional. Leo Tolstoy, in his story "After the Ball," discusses the unacceptability of cruelty to others.

Pavel Basinsky, a writer, author, and scholar of Maxim Gorky and Leo Tolstoy, writes in his introduction about the "deep folk truth" that the classics skillfully convey in short stories. Indeed, many words are not needed; "Forgive and Resurrect" is the motto.
