Biographical note
An outsider from the literary establishment of his day, Nikolai Leskov (1831-1895) was one of the most singular voices of nineteenth-century Russia, combining a profound religious spirit with a fascination for outsized characters, comic absurdity and the joy of pure story.'I decided that my trip had evidently been in vain, since nothing of interest could possibly occur on this visit. I was mistaken.'
Condemned to sleeplessness by the chatter permeating his guesthouse room, a forlorn traveller turns his ear to the riotous tale spun by the garrulous, meddlesome, inane and utterly unprincipled Márya Martýnovna next door. Her exuberant deformations of morality and language scandalized Tsarist society, and she remains one of Russian literature’s most uproarious anti-heroes.
