Longer Stories. Last Decade Modern Library, 2000. Pp: 611. With the republication of Longer Stories from the Last Decade, the Modern Library has an original three-volume edition of 123 of Chekhov's stories presented in the translations by Constance Garnett. The stories have been selected by the novelist, historian, and Russian literature expert Shelby Foote, who has provided an introduction to the books in the series. Longer Stories from the Last Decade includes eleven works written in roughly the last ten years of the writer's life: "Three Years,""The Duel,""Ward No. 6,""The Black Monk,""An Anonymous Story,""A Woman's Kingdom,""The Wife'""In the Ravine,""Peasants,""The Murder," and "My Life." As Shelby Foote writes, this volume of stories "calls attention to a broader and deeper talent than has generally been recognized, either by critics or the reading public, down the years." Chekhov remains indispensable. ISBN: 9780679606635. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed. PolareBook number: U2914763 € 12.50 [Appr.: US$ 16.66 | £UK 11 | JP¥ 1608] Catalogue: Romans

Like new condition. 9987 pages "This, then, is narrative historya kind of history that goes back to an older literary tradition.. The writing is superb..one of the historical and literary achievements of our time." The Washington Post Book World "Gettysburg..is described with such meticulous attention to action, terrain, time, and the characters of the various commanders that I understand, at last, what happened in that battle.. Mr. Foote has an acute sense of the relative importance of events and a novelist's skill in directing the reader's attention to the men and the episodes that will influence the course of the whole war, without omitting items which are of momentary interest. His organization of facts could hardly be better." Atlantic "Though the events of this middle year of the Civil War have been recounted hundreds of times, they have rarely been re-created with such vigor and such picturesque detail." -The New York Times Book Review "The lucidity of the battle narratives, the vigor of the prose, the strong feeling for the men from generals to privates who did the fighting, are all controlled by constant sense of how it happened and what it was all about. Foote has the novelist's feeling for character and situation, without losing the historian's scrupulous regard for recorded fact. The Civil War is likely to stand unequaled.". Fine.

Soft cover. Like new condition. 840 pages. "Here, for a certainty, is one of the great historical narratives of our century, a unique and brilliant achievement, one that must be firmly placed in the ranks of the masters."--Van Allen Bradley, Chicago Daily News "A stunning book full of color, life, character and a new atmosphere of the Civil War, and at the same time a narrative of unflagging power. Eloquent proof that an historian should be a writer above all else." -Burke Davis "This is historical writing at its best.. It can hardly be surpassed." -Library Journal "Anyone who wants to relive the Civil War, as thousands of Americans apparently do, will go through this volume with pleasure.. Years from now, Foote's monumental narrative most likely will continue to be read and remembered as a classic of its kind." -New York Herald Tribune Book Review "To read this great narrative is to love the nation to love it through the living knowledge of its mortal division. Whitman, who ultimately knew and loved the bravery and frailty of the soldiers, observed that the real Civil War would never be written and perhaps should not be. For me, Shelby Foote has written it.. This work was done to last forever.". Fine. Pinacle BooksBook number: 089870 USD 31.20 [Appr.: EURO 23.5 | £UK 20.25 | JP¥ 3011] Catalogue: History::US Civil War
