WILLIAM PHILLIPS
When THE SHORT NOVELS OF DOSTOEVSKY was published
in the Permanent Library last November, it was acclaimed by critics
as the most important anthology of the year. Now, in this new volume,
the short stories of the great Russian master of fiction have been col–
lected for the first time.
Characteristically "Dostoevskian"in subject and psychological in–
tensity, theae stories reveal the full range of Dostoevsky's narrative
genius. They also throw considerable light on such of his longer works
as THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV and CRIME AND PUNISH–
MENT. Translated by Constance Garnett.

The Short Novels of Tolstoy- ----.
Edited with an introduction
By
PHILIP RAHV
Tolstoy's immense reputation in the English-speaking world is based
on only three works: WAR AND PEACE, RESURRECTION and
ANNA KARENINA. But, great as those novels are, they are only a
portion of Tolstoy's prodigious output.
Philip Rahv, whose anthology THE GREAT SHORT NOVELS
OF HENRY JAMES, published in 1944, was a forerunner of the
Jamesian revival, has in this volume collected the finest of Tolstoy's
short novels. The novels chosen not only come up to the highest level
of Tolstoy's art, but they also fully document his spiritual growth and
development. Translated by Aylmer Maude.
