Spanning 44 years of Bunin's writing, these stories give glimpses into the vanished past of aristocratic Russia, replete with country estates, artsy Moscow life and a changing social structure. Some of Bunin's post-1920 stories, such as Ida, Sunstroke and The Elagin Affair, reflect the lives of Russian and European sophisticates, focusing on their love affairs and concern with elegant and refined living. His later stories - In Paris and On one Familiar Street - explore the alienation of those who cannot forget worlds they have lost.
