Cursed Days

MediaBook Studio presents the audiobook “Cursed Days” by Ivan Bunin—the great Russian writer, a classic of world literature. Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin is one of the greatest masters of lyrical prose, an outstanding poet, the first Russian laureate of the Nobel Prize in Literature (1933). Bloody events of the 1917 revolution and the ensuing civil war forced the writer to emigrate to France. The main themes of Bunin’s overseas period were love and memories of his homeland. The audiobook is narrated by the popular artist and well-known dubbing actor Sergey Gorbunov.
MOSCOW, 1918. January 1 (old style). This cursed year is over. But what comes next? Maybe something even more terrible. And all around something astonishing: almost everyone, for some reason, is unbelievably cheerful—whoever you meet on the street, the radiance from their face just pours out:
“Come on, sir! After two or three weeks, you’ll be ashamed of it yourself…”
With brisk cheerfulness and tender feeling (from pity for me, the fool), he squeezes my hand—and runs off." Listen, like, comment actively! )
