One of the masters of the short story Guardian I have to tell you you see, this is just about the strangest experience I have been through...These six stories of obsession, secrets, delusions and desires from one of the greatest European writers show individuals caught up in forces beyond their control whether an art dealer agreeing to a heartbreaking deception, a soldier destroyed by war, a servant infatuated with her employer or a young boy witnessing illicit adult passions. Portraying innocence lost and lives crushed by history, each tale is a psychologically acute, startling human drama.Translated by Jonathan Katz
