When a story is depressing as hell in the first page and a half- you wouldn’t think it would get any worse. But it does.

The best way to pick up women is when they’re dying and you’re the only doctor for miles.

The story of an unattractive woman who is lonely, but it doesn’t matter since she suddenly winds up in prison for no reason and dies.

Another week, another depressing Russian short story. This one about a man who spends the night homeless, and gets hot kisses from a homeless lady.

More depressing Russian stories- This one about a man who was wrongfully imprisoned for murder. Does he get out? Nope. He dies. I’m just telling you that now.

I know what kind of books to read for every season, but not in this weird period when summer ends and school starts. So you get a really depressing story by a Russian author. Have fun with that.

The story wraps up where both Tom and Huck are rich- and no one brings up the fact that it’s stolen money and the police should be called to return it. And good ‘ol Huck just wants to sleep in a barrel again.

The kids escape the cave! Weirdly they run into Joe down there and Tom is pretty casual about it.
