About the book: 2014 / Lent is a special time. Time to prepare for the most significant holiday of the Holy Resurrection of Christ. This is a joyful and at the same time mysterious time. This mystery permeates the works of Chekhov, Leskov, Dostoevsky and other writers, whose works are collected in this book. Russian classics formed the moral core of Russian literature. Reading the classics allows us to touch the deepest things that exist in each of us, helps us become at least a little better and a little closer to God..
