Ghostly Russian Postmaster Tale Echoes in 1869 Turbulent Road
Fragmented memoir and travel recollection recount a journey from Pagancog to Kharkof in 1869. A storm turns plains to mud as a stern postmaster and a Cossack widow exchange memories of love, betrayal, and a plan to fake death to allow reunion with Olga. The narrator contemplates the Donski station, a widow keeper, and past loyalties amid war rumors and emigration.
