The finest work by the great Russian writer Teffi, in a new selection by the acclaimed Robert Chandler__________'Heartbreaking as well as very funny. I wish she were still alive, and I could have met her... I can't recommend her strongly enough' Guardian'Teffi is one of the great writers of early 20th century Russia, from Nicholas II's reign to the Revolution afterwards. Her writing, whether stories or reportage or memoir is witty, elegant, fantastical, yet sharp and acute and playful' Simon Sebag Montefiore'One of the great twentieth-century writers. At their best her short stories are to my mind the equal of Chekhov's' John Gray__________Teffi's literary genius made her a star in pre-revolutionary Russia, beloved by Tsar Nicholas II and Vladimir Lenin alike. An extremely funny writer with a scathing critical eye, she was also capable of Chekhovian subtlety and depth of character.Ranging from humorous sketches of a vanished Russia to ironic, melancholy evocations of post-revolutionary exile, And Time Was No More showcases the full range of Teffi's gifts. A new selection by the celebrated Robert Chandler, it includes previously untranslated stories alongside more famous work, demonstrating the enduring freshness of one of the great wits of Russian literature.
