About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Lady Macbeth of the Mzinsk District by Nikolai Leskov. (Translated by Alfred Edward Chamot.) Read in English by Phil Benson. In Mzinsk, a remote Russian town, adultery is Katerina's relief from boredom. Before long she has developed a passion for her lover, Sergei, that will lead to more than one murder. The title of Nikolai Leskov's novella, published in Russian in 1865, was inspired by Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth, but a quite different fate is store for Katerina. - Summary by Phil Benson
