Leonid Andreyev's Expressionist novella The Red Laugh is an
experimental, fragmentary depiction of war and its psychological
effects, both on those who participate in the fighting and on those
who hear of its atrocities from afar; it was inspired by the
horrors of the 1904-05 Russo-Japanese War. Translated into English
for the first time since 1905, it is here paired with a fresh
translation of Andreyev's earlier story 'The Abyss,' which caused
scandal when it first appeared in 1902. This edition provides an
illuminating introduction by translator Kirsten Lodge establishing
the importance of Andreyev to both the Russian and to the overall
modernist canon, as well as a range of background materials that
help set the novel in its historical, literary, and artistic
contexts.
