Will the besotted lover be successful in his pursuit or will the young coquette who seems at times to reciprocate his feelings but who lavished lingering looks on two dashing princes during a recent ball shatter his hopes his dreams and his entire world? A Serendipitous Error written in 1839, when Goncharov was still in his twenties is accompanied here by another early novella An Evil Malady and a short fictional fragment.
