Diary of a Superfluous Man and Other Novellas

First published in 1850, `The Diary of a Superfluous Man' was initially censored by the authorities, as some of its passages were deemed too critical of Russian society. This volume also includes two other masterly novellas, also touching on the theme of disappointed love: `Asya' and `First Love'.

Publicat pentru prima data in 1850, „Jurnalul unui om superfluu” a fost initial cenzurat de autoritati, deoarece unele dintre pasajele sale erau considerate prea critice pentru societatea rusa. Acest volum include, de asemenea, alte doua romane magistrale, care se refera si la tema iubirii dezamagite: „Asya” si „Prima dragoste”.
