āThe Gentleman from San Franciscoā is easily the best known of Ivan Buninās stories and has achieved the stature of a masterpiece. But Buninās other stories are not to be missed. In Sunstroke, Graham Hettlinger has selected the āGentlemanā and twenty-four other stories and translated them afreshāseveral for the first time in English. The result is a collection that is remarkable in its crystalline prose, surprising in its vibrancy. It includes, among others, āRaven,ā āCold Fall,ā āMuza,ā āStyopa,ā āAntigone,ā āIn Paris,ā and āLate Hour.ā Never has the last of the great āgentryā writers and the first Russian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature received a more caring and passionate translation. Sunstroke confirms Buninās stature as one of the greatestāand most neglectedāRussian writers of the twentieth century.
