From the author of the bilingual collection of poems, Soundless Guitars, Adulterous Dreams, here's a collection of unpretentious, pleasing thoughts, authored by ordinary speakers of our collective wisdom. But now enhanced and presented in English, Spanish, and French. Some are identical to our innermost trivial musings, and some are more challenging, perhaps controversial, and we don't want to miss the opportunity to enjoy or refute them. Yes, it does boil down to opening one's mind in order to identify with what's beyond the words. But then, if opening our mind is a condition to read and enjoy quotations, be they authored by the famous or by the nameless, "then why must we close our mind again if for no reason?" Indeed, the answers to this and to similar questions lie within you. "It takes more than looking to see; more than seeing to understand; more than understanding... to uphold the truth." Regardless of how this idea may resonate in your first language, pondering on it in any second or third YES-SI-OUI language adds to the enjoyment that we all expect from a good book. So take out a minute and do your mind a favor Read them in the language of your choice; brush up on what you have learned, or meet your favorite new language halfway. Bonne Chance

In this book you will find a magnificent collection of the Russia's greatest short stories, written by the most notable Russian authors: Anton Chekhov ( ), Alexander Pushkin ( ), Fyodor Dostoyevsky ( ), and Nikolai Gogol ( ). This compilation features Pushkin's masterpiece "The Queen of Spades." Other stories include: Gogol's incredibly disturbed... and disturbingly humorous: "The Diary of a Madman"; Dostoyevsky's "The Thief" (also known as: "The Honest Thief"); as well as Anton Chekhov's famous short story of "Slander" and the eerie tale of "The Witch."

Boole, and more Using this Dual Language Reader: The key to mastering any foreign language is developing the ability to "Think" in that language. With the Russian (Cyrillic) text on the right and the English Translation on the left, you're able to comprehend the ideas being conveyed without turning a page Oh... and for students who wish to test their ability to read the Russian (Cyrillic) text, you can fold the left page back and easily hold the book to read entire stories (or the entire book) in Russian; If (or when...) you have difficulty understanding exactly what the Russian author is trying to say, you can quickly look at the provided translation to make the concepts clear, to get yourself back on track. Another useful technique (for beginners, especially) is to read the English translation first and, once the concepts are clear, then move on to reading and comprehending the Russian (Cyrillic) text.
