The Enchanted Wanderer. Lady Macbeth Mtsensk district. Leskov N.

“He felt very elusive, which is called the“ soul of the people ”,” said M. Gorky about the author of the famous “left -handed people”, “enchanted wanderer”, “Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk district”. Leskov’s original talent forces to think about the mysterious Russian soul, about the paradoxes and contradictions of the national character. Street spiritual searches, interest in a variety of aspects of life, deep knowledge of life, endless variety of plots and situations - all these features of Leskov’s work were reflected in the works included in the real collection. Opening new topics for literature, Leskov invited his readers to look at the whole Russian world.
