Diaristic aphorisms by the Russian writer and religious philosopher Vasily Rozanov (1856-1919), a controversial figure often associated with the Russian Symbolism movement; though largely suppressed following the revolution, his work continued to exert an influence on later generations of Russian writers, from Gorky to Nabokov. Translated from the Russian by S. S. Koteliansky. With a foreword by James Stephens. A superb copy.
