INTRODUCING "CHTENIA: READINGS FROM RUSSIA"
Russian Life magazine, the independent, bimonthly magazine of Russian
culture, history, travel and life (russianlife.com), is pleased to
announce the debut of its new journal: CHTENIA, a quarterly journal
of quality English-language translations of Russian fiction and non-
fiction.
CHTENIA is Russian for “readings,” and CHTENIA is all about offering
interesting, topical readings to lovers of Russian culture and
literature. Each issue will offer quality fiction, non-fiction and
photography in a convenient and portable paperback book format of
120-160 pages. Edited by our long-time History Editor Tamara Edelman,
CHTENIA is being published quarterly. Each issue of CHTENIA has a
central theme, and all of its readings, poetry and photography touch
on that theme -- as a looking glass into aspects of Russian culture,
history and life.
The theme of the debut issue, Chtenia 01, "The Hearts of Dogs," and
its contents include:
The Diary of Mikki Fox, By Sasha Chyorny*
Chang's Dreams, By Ivan Bunin
Glasha, By Sergei Dovlatov
The Dear Dog, By Anton Chekhov
Faithful Ruslan, By Georgy Vladimov*
