Polikushka

See all formats and editions

The story of 'Polikushka' is a very graphic description of the life led by a servant of the court household of a certain nobleman, in which the author portrays the different conditions and surroundings enjoyed by these servants from those of the ordinary or common peasants.

It is a true and powerful reproduction of an element in Russian life but little written about heretofore.

Like the other stories of this great writer, 'Polikushka' has a moral to which we all might profitably give heed.

He illustrates the awful consequences of intemperance, and concludes that only kind treatment can reform the victims of alcohol.
