Nel bel mezzo di un'accesa discussione sull'esistenza del soprannaturale, Porfirji Kapotonic racconta del fantasma canino che tutte le notti, accucciato sotto il suo letto, con i suoi ululati gli impediva di dormire. Ma quel fantasma canino recava un messaggio che gli avrebbe cambiato la vita.

La vita ci parla ogni giorno, ma non sempre siamo pronti ad ascoltarla. Ci perdiamo in ciò che non è andato come volevamo, ci aggrappiamo a relazioni che dovremmo lasciare andare, ci convinciamo di non essere abbastanza. E in questi giorni bui, nei periodi più confusi, nei momenti in cui ci sembra che vada tutto storto, cosa c'è di meglio di qualcuno che ci consola e ci tiene la mano? Di qualcuno che ci ricorda che il dolore passerà, che le risposte arriveranno, che troveremo il modo di guarire da ogni ferita?

Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all. In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country.

The world since earliest times has always had spies. Information is a valuable commodity and even more so in times of war or tension. Many authors and poets have had real life incarnations as spies from Christopher Marlowe and Aphra Behn to Daniel Defoe. But it’s a dangerous game. Working in a murky, secretive world where any trust given could be at the expense of your life.

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. The Russian Literary Tradition has justly earned a magnificent reputation. The Russian Empire of the Czars was a huge and disparate patchwork of peoples ruled by an overbearing elite that employed a middle-class bureaucracy to keep the working class firmly underfoot. Within its vaulted ranks are a role call of many of the greatest literary talents of the ages.

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.

If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something.

When we read or listen, words can have a transforming effect. Our mood can alter in the space of a few sentences from joy to sadness. And not just our mood. These words can affect us physically, they can engage our emotions and even in their sadness bring a lump to our throat and tears to our eyes. Sometimes the relief can be palpable. Our authors, from Anton Chekhov, Stephen Crane, Willa Cather, Katherine Mansfield and a wealth of others, are well aware of what their talents will evoke. Genius has many names.

Sadness can be about so many things from places to people, from thoughts to actions. Our classic authors including Arnold Bennett, James Joyce, Willa Cather, Joseph Conrad, Ivan Turgenev and many others use their pens and stories to demonstrate the many ways this feeling can take a hold of lives and its consequences.
