Source text (please read only from this text!): https://imwerden.de/publ-12521.htmlA novella and three short stories by Evgeny Chirikov, a Russian writer popular before the 1917 revolution. He favored democratic reforms in Russia, but became disillusioned and emigrated after the Bolshevik coup, that lead to a ban on his name in the Soviet Union, and he was mostly forgotten until the 21st century. (Summary by Mark Chulsky)

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!
