"Antonov Apples" is one of the most famous stories by the outstanding Russian writer Ivan Alekseevich Bunin (1870–1953).
The smell of apple is a symbolic image of the fading petty-bourgeois tradition of large estates, landowner life and old, pre-revolutionary Russia.
I. A. Bunin is also the author of the stories "Shadow of the Bird", "To the End of the World", "Island of the Sirens", "Chaliapin"...
