    Grownup Matters

    Written by Vsevolod Garshin

    Narrated by Jim Spring

    About this audiobook

    Much like his stories for children, Vsevolod Garshin's grownup prose may not always be easy to read due to difficult subject matter he tends to pick for his narratives. It is, however, always beautifully written and fascinating.

      On November 16, 1989, I phoned the Soviet embassy in Paris and asked to speak to Mr. S. The switchboard operator did not reply. After a long silence, a woman’s voice said: “You know, Mr. S. returned to Moscow yesterday.” I immediately hung up. I felt

      Unlearnable Lessons on My Father’s Deathbed

      Mar 21, 2017

      I was at my father’s side much of the time in his final weeks, a witness to both the gifts and miseries of being near death. Nurses came and went, patient, long-suffering. They sat beside him for hours at a time, dousing spongy lollipops in water and
