Vladimir Gilyarovsky's classic portrait of the Russian capital is one of Russians most beloved books. This award-winning translation makes the book available to English language readers for the first time. Gilyarovsky's self-described "chronicle" is a spectactular verbal pastiche: conversation, from gutter gibberish to the drawing room; oratory, from illiterates to aristocrats; prose, from boilerplate to Tolstoy; poetry, from earthy humor to Pushkin. *** Winner of the prestigious 2015 Award for Best Translation into English by the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages. *** First published in 1926, the book positively teems with rich descriptions and vivid anecdotes: ...from the depths of Moscows sewers to the murky back rooms of its gambling dens... ...from the steam-filled halls of banyas to the dining rooms of posh restaurants and workers taverns... ...from the lives of students and waiters to the struggles of market traders and heroic firemen... Gilyarovskys book documents pre-Soviet life in the Russian capital like no work before or since. This first-ever English translation includes dozens of historical photos, poems in the original Russian, an index, and maps. REVIEW: "...This English rendition is a true accomplishment... students studying any aspect of nineteenth-century Russia would gain from this work a more graphic and more complete sense of the vanished pre-revolutionary world than any single textbook or literary work is likely to provide."
