The Captain's Daughter and Other Stories, by Alexandre Pushkin
2.0
A so-so collection of stories. The stories themselves are not at fault, but the language is somewhat stilted - possibly another translation might yield a more pleasant reading experience, although it might be also the writing style of the original.
The Snowstorm and The Undertaker were the best of the bunch. The Negro of Peter the Great is noted as unfinished -- and is literally unfinished, stopping mid story, without resolution.
