I Live From Mail Delivery to Delivery
Edited by Hilde Hoogenboom and Arja Rosenholm
One of the "Russian Brontë" sisters, Nadezhda Khvoshchinskaia (1820–89) was the most productive and respected woman novelist during the era of the great Russian novels, and the most well-paid writer by the elite journals after Tolstoy and Turgenev. She was the eldest of three sisters who were all writers and this collection of 116 letters in Russian and French to editors and writers, with introduction and commentary, is the first publication from the over five hundred letters by the Khvoshchinskaias in archives in Russia.
