<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published in trade paperback in 1997 and in mass market paperback in 2000 by Bantam Books.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>From Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, the highly acclaimed translators of <i>War and Peace, Doctor Zhivago, </i> and <i>Anna Karenina, </i> which was an Oprah Book Club pick and million-copy bestseller, <i>The Eternal Husband and Other Stories</i> brings together five of Dostoevsky's short masterpieces.</b> <p/>Filled with many of the themes and concerns central to his great novels, these short works display the full range of Dostoevsky's genius. The centerpiece of this collection, the short novel <i>The Eternal Husband, </i>describes the almost surreal meeting of a cuckolded widower and his dead wife's lover. Dostoevsky's dark brilliance and satiric vision infuse the other four tales with all-too-human characters. <i>The Eternal Husband and Other Stories</i> is sterling Dostoevsky--a collection of emotional power and uncompromising insight into the human condition.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"One finally gets the musical whole of Dostoevsky's original."--<i>The New York Times Book Review, </i> on Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky's translation of <i>The Brothers Karamazov</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Richard Pevear</b> and<b> Larissa Volokhonsky</b> have twice been awarded the PEN Book-of-the-Month Club Translation Prize (for their version of Dostoevsky's <i>The Brothers Karamazov</i> and for Tolstoy's <i>Anna Karenina</i>), and their translation of Dostoevsky's <i>Demons</i> was one of three nominees for the same prize.
