Lazarus and The Gentleman from San Francisco, while fairly typical
of Slavic literature, nevertheless contain few of the elements
popularly associated with the work of contemporary Russian writers.
They have no sex interest, no photographic descriptions of sordid
conditions and no lugubrious philosophizing. These stories are not
cheerful, yet their sadness is uplifting rather than depressing.
They both contain what the Greek called katharsis in their
tragedies - that cleansing atmosphere which purges us of every
baser feeling as we read them.
