An Incident at Krechetovka Station - Matryona's House

Solzhenitsyn's two novellas, "An Incident at Krechetovka Station" and "Matriona's House", brought together in this book, show that this great writer of the 20th century continued the tradition of Russian literature after Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy.

“An Incident at Krechetovka Station” tells the difficult struggle of Red Army lieutenant Zotov, who had to make a critical decision while fighting in German-occupied Russia during the Second World War, and the increasingly uneasy story of the villagers who continue their lives under the weight of war and struggle with hunger, poverty and uncertainty. It reflects their mood expertly.

“Matriona's House” is the story of Matryona, who had to struggle with poverty and diseases after her painful youth years, who had no one other than her self-interested relatives and neighbors, and who lived with her lame cat and goat. The tenant who settles in her house will only learn who Matryona really is after her death, which is as unfortunate as her life!

“Just like Dostoyevsky's works, Solzhenitsyn's stories are a great artistic competence.”
