Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Judas Iscariot
Our author, Leonid N. Andreyev, is not to be confounded with the musician, "M. Andreeff," who has lately been taking the London Coliseum by storm with his Balalaika Court Orchestra. But he is already known to a limited public in England as author of The Red Laugh and The Seven who were Hanged. Besides plays, etc., he has produced a considerable number of short stories. As a rule he chooses everyday subjects, set as is but natural in Russian surroundings, but still of universal human interest. It is only in these three stories, which I have ventured to put together as a "Biblical Trilogy," that he has treated of biblical subjects, and has transported his readers to Palestine and Rome.
