Knock, Knock, Knock and Other Stories
by Ivan Turgenev
Turgenev’s works usually focus on class, love and suffering. This collection, with its themes of the supernatural was, therefore, something of a departure for a writer who was well-known for his more humanitarian and liberal views.
He uses these supernatural elements as a vehicle for exploring the irrationalities of the human psyche and he leaves the rational explanations for apparently supernatural events ambiguous.
This title, and other Turgenev collections, are published as print-on-demand titles by Faber.
