NIKOLAI LESKOV (1831-1895) was a Russian novelist, short story writer, playwright, and journalist. Praised for his unique writing style and innovative experiments in form, and held in high esteem by Leo Tolstoy, Anton Chekhov and Maxim Gorky among others, Leskov is credited with creating a comprehensive picture of contemporary Russian society. His short stories exploded the prevailing traditions of 19th-century Russian fiction and paved the way for such famous literary successors as Mikhail Bulgakov.
