Product Description
A literary event of extraordinary dimensionsthe first single-volume edition of all of Isaac Babel's work. Considered one of the greatest writers of the twentieth centuryand the greatest short story writer since ChekhovIsaac Babel (1894-1941) also wrote numerous plays, diaries, and screenplays. Despite his stature, the whole of Babel's work has never been assembled in one place. This magnificent edition of Babel's collected work, edited and authorized by Babel's daughter Nathalie and newly translated by Peter Constantine, includes such standard works as the "Red Cavalry" cycle and his diaries, as well as several previously untranslated stories and screenplays. Often revolving around the tortured dilemmas faced by Jews within the ruthless Soviet state, Babel's terse, violent fiction has left its mark on generations of readers and writers. This book will stand as Babel's final, most enduring legacy. Slipcased edition. 2 b/w photographs, 3 maps.
