About this listen

The Gentleman from San Francisco is a short story by Ivan Bunin, a Nobel Prize-winning but often overlooked Russian author. It was translated into English by D. H. Lawrence (with Samuil Koteliansky). The story is often hailed as a classic of the genre.

A 58-year-old American from San Francisco, now in possession of a vast fortune, sets off with his wife and daughter on a world tour. A series of events causes laughter, embarassment, and revolt as he and his family travel through Italy and remarkable changes begin to take effect.
