Description
The novella “The Pit” is popular with readers of all generations. It belongs to those works you want to reread again and again. This story of the life of a brothel, its residents and “guests” in one of the provincial towns is captivating not because of the sensational nature of its themes, but because of Kuprin’s honest, compassionate, humane attitude toward the fate of the girls who ended up in “The Pit.” The master of the pen, first in Russian literature, addressed the everyday life of a brothel—cruelly and vividly, without smoothing anything over.
This novella is the summit of Russia’s psychological prose.
