Description
Teffi (Nadezhda Alexandrovna Buchinskaya, 1876–1952) is “the most exquisite pearl of Russian cultural humor.” In her inspired stories, the comic and dramatic blend together; her imagination is lively, and her treatment of familiar themes is original. In her unmistakable style, Teffi tells about everything that makes up the delicate world of the soul—so that you look at the world around you differently, with care and tenderness.
The book is read by popular film actress and well-known dubbing actress Alisa Pavlova.
In “Nostalgia” there are no historical facts or “commentary and conclusions.” There are no outstanding personalities, heroes, or villains. People in “Nostalgia” are ordinary everyday folks—victims of forced circumstances—standing face-to-face with hardships and overcoming them the same way everyone does. Enclosed by the burdens of revolutionary time and resignation to fate, “Nostalgia” is a portrait of personal experiences, heartfelt longing, and—of course—nostalgia: for a place, for a time, and for unity with oneself.
