Red flower. Tales and stories. Garshin V.M.

All the stories and short stories of Vsevolod Mikhailovich Garshin (1855-1888) permeates the tragic principle. As a hero of the novel-eating “Red Flower” written by him, he took all the responsibility for the evil of the world and wanted to win it. Hence his manner of writing - the most nervous, subjective, exposing the most innermost strings of the soul of the storyteller, speaking in the first person, as if directly addressing the heart and feeling of the reader - in other words, appealing to another sensitive soul.

Eternity, immortality, beauty - and here death, murder, blood and dirt: why? Why? - Here are the questions raised by Garshin and desperately thrown into the face of indifferent people. With his work, he gives a signal to the world about the upcoming disaster, and the only possible way for him to save the world is a self -sacrifice, to give life “for his own.”
