April 2019 selection of the NYRB Classics Book Club. Maxim Osipov, who lives and practices medicine in a town ninety miles outside Moscow, is one of Russia’s best contemporary writers. In the tradition of Anton Chekhov and William Carlos Williams, he draws on his experiences in medicine to write stories of great subtlety and striking insight. Osipov’s fiction presents a nuanced, collage-like portrait of life in provincial Russia—its tragedies, frustrations, and moments of humble beauty and inspiration. The twelve stories in this volume depict doctors, actors, screenwriters, teachers, entrepreneurs, local political bosses, and common criminals whose paths intersect in unpredictable yet entirely natural ways: in sickrooms, classrooms, administrative offices and on trains and in planes. Their encounters lead to disasters, major and minor epiphanies, and—on occasion—the promise of redemption.

Review: Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney

In the Kingdom of Backyard, there lived a warrior named Rock. Meanwhile in the Empire of Mom's Home Office, there was a second great warrior Paper. In the Kitchen Realm, in the tiny village of Junk Drawer, lived a third warrior Scissors. These three were the strongest, smartest, and fastest in all the land. Time and again they beat the most fearsome opponents they could find.
