Aleksandr Ivanovich Kuprin (1870-1938) was Russian novelist and
short-story writer. He was an army officer for several years before
he resigned to pursue a writing career, and was a friend of Maxim
Gorky. He won fame with The Duel (1905), a novel of protest against
the Russian military system. In 1909, Yama: The Pit, his novel
dealing with prostitution in Odessa, created a sensation. Kuprin
left Russia after the revolution but returned in 1937. Some of his
best short stories of action and adventure appear in The Garnet
Bracelet, originally published in 1917.
