Description
Sentimental TalesMikhail Zoshchenko's Sentimental Tales are satirical portraits of small town characters on the fringes of Soviet society in the first decade of Bolshevik rule. The tales are narrated by one Kolenkorov, who is anything but a model Soviet author: not only is he still attached to the era of the old regime, he is also, quite simply, not a very good writer.

Mikhail Zoshchenko's Sentimental Tales are satirical portraits of small-town characters on the fringes of Soviet society in the first decade of Bolshevik rule. The tales are narrated by one Kolenkorov, who is anything but a model Soviet author: not only is he still attached to the era of the old regime, he is also, quite simply, not a very good writer. Shaped by Zoshchenko's masterful hands--he takes credit for editing the tales in a series of comic prefaces--Kolenkorov's prose is beautifully mangled, full of stylistic infelicities, overloaded flights of metaphor, tortured clich , and misused bureaucratese, in the tradition of Gogol. Yet beneath Kolenkorov's intrusive narration and sublime blathering, the stories are genuinely moving. They tell tales of unrequited love and amorous misadventures among down-on-their-luck musicians, provincial damsels, aspiring poets, and liberal aristocrats hopelessly out of place in the new Russia, against a backdrop of overcrowded apartments, scheming, and daydreaming. Zoshchenko's deadpan style and sly ventriloquy mask a biting critique of Soviet life--and perhaps life in general. An original perspective on Soviet society in the 1920s and simply uproariously funny, Sentimental Tales at last shows Anglophone readers why Zoshchenko is considered among the greatest humorists of the Soviet era.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect fit for my 2024 Subaru Ascent, clear visibility in heavy rain
Size: 26"+20+14
I purchased these wiper blades as a replacement for the originals on my 2024 Subaru Ascent, and they fit perfectly right out of the box.
Installation was quick and straightforward, everything lined up exactly as expected with no adjustments needed. Once installed, the difference was immediately noticeable. The windshield clears smoothly with no streaking or skipping, even during steady rain.
**What stood out:**
* Exact fit for my 2024 Subaru Ascent
* Easy installation
* Quiet operation (no squeaking or chatter)
* Very clear visibility during rainstorms (I get very nervous driving in the rain)
After driving in several rainy conditions, my windshield stays crystal clear, which makes a big difference for nighttime driving and highway visibility.
**Overall:**
Great quality for the price and performs just as well as more expensive name-brand replacements. I would definitely purchase these again and recommend them to other Subaru Ascent owners looking for an easy, reliable replacement.

Genuine Honda fluid
It’s OEM Honda brake fluid. It’s DOT 3 fluid which is what my Honda calls for. It works, it’s clean and clear, exactly as brake fluid should be. Two containers will allow me to replace and refill the brake master cylinder in my Pilot.
