About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Sasha by Aleksandr Kuprin. (Translated by Douglas Ashby.) Read in English by volunteer readers. Kuprin is well-known to Russian readers and has been described as one of the last exponents of Russian critical realism. He first made a career as an officer in the army, but he left this work to take on employment as varied as journalist, hunter, fisherman, actor, and circus worker. His literary fame was launched with the publication in 1905 of Poyedinok (The Duel). Here are 12 short stories from Alexander Kuprin. - Summary by KevinS
