Карусель (Carousel)

About this film

LibriVox recording of Карусель (Carousel) by Nadezhda Teffi. Read in Russian by Mark Chulsky. Humorous short stories, "highly benevolent in their elegiac tone and profoundly humanitarian in their attitudes," as one of the critics said, by Nadezhda Lokhvitskaya (pen name Teffi). "I liked drawing caricatures and writing satirical verses" she said about herself. She was a sister of Mirra Lokhvitskaya, the "Russian Sappho", whose book Before the Sunset is available at LibriVox as well. Юмористические рассказы Надежды Александровны Лохвицкой (псевдоним Тэффи), на фоне насмешки, проникнуты сочувствием к ее героям. Их высоко ценили самые непохожие литераторы, от Бунина до Горького. Тэффи была сестрой Мирры Лохвицкой, "Русской Сафо", сборник стихов которой "Перед закатом" также есть на Либривокс. (Summary by Mark Chulsky) For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
