In a bucolic idyll, a terrorist agonizes over the act of violence he is about to commit. On a remote island in the South Pacific, the investigation of a case of mass suicide reveals further mysteries. In a far-flung colony, a cynical trio sends an unwitting man into the wilderness in search of a chimera. Mixing romance and high adventure, intrigue and the fantastic, these magnificent tales by one of Russia's most enduringly popular writers deftly probe the depths of human nature and desire. Fandango and Other Stories presents a selection of essential short fiction by Alexander Grin, Russia's counterpart to Robert Louis Stevenson, Edgar Allan Poe, and Alexandre Dumas. By turns a sailor, a dockworker, a vagrant, a gold prospector, a lumberjack, a soldier, a deserter, an agitator, an exile, a prisoner, and a runaway, Grin wrote seven novels and over three hundred short stories that transport the reader to a realm of pure art and imagination. His ingenious plots explore conflicts of the individual and society in a romantic world populated by a cast of eccentric, cosmopolitan characters. Fandango and Other Stories includes works drawn from across the entirety of Grin's varied career to encompass the range and sophistication of his writing. Bryan Karetnyk's elegant translations bring Grin's distinctive voice to a new generation of readers.Binding Type: Paperback

Bought 2, will buy more
Color: Pink Artichoke, Size: Large
Extremely comfortable and high quality fabric. Very similar to an Under Amour product for a smaller price tag. I’ve bought 2 so far!

Great Lightweight Pullover
Color: Faded Denim Heather, Size: X-Large
I'm 5’8” and about 240 lbs, and I went with an XL for this light grey quarter-zip pullover. Fit is spot-on, not too tight, not overly baggy. The material is lightweight and breathable but still feels like it has some substance, making it perfect for layering or wearing on its own in mild weather.
The fabric has a nice stretch to it, which adds to the comfort and ease of movement, and it holds its shape well. The zipper is high quality, smooth to zip and feels durable.
Color is true to the description, a clean, versatile light grey that pairs easily with joggers or jeans.

Great shirt, good quality.
Color: Light Blue Melange, Size: Large
This brand is solid, really good quality material and a great look and price. Maelreg continues to impress me, I've now purchased 6-8 of their shirts/hoodies and 2 pair of joggers. I really like them all.

I’m Team Maelreg!
Color: Dark Grey Heather, Size: 3X-Large
I’m a huge fan of Maelreg! I’ve purchased numerous polos, a hoodie, a pair of shirts, and some golf pants, as well as two of these quarter zips (and I currently have a third one in my Christmas list). I love the way they fit and the way they look. I’m a bigger guy too, so it’s not easy to find fashionable “ath-leisure” apparel that doesn’t make me look like a popped can of Pilsbury biscuit dough. The only thing close to a complaint I can think of is that these are a lightweight weight material and the collar doesn’t want to stand up on its own. I wish Maelreg made a medium weight version with a little sturdier of a collar, but that’s just me.
