The Lady with the Dog

MediaBook Studio presents the audiobook “Lady with the Dog” by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov—the great Russian writer, a classic of world literature, an honorary academician of the Imperial Academy of Sciences in the category of belles-lettres. One of the most famous playwrights in the world. His works have been translated into practically all languages of the world. His plays—especially “The Seagull,” “Three Sisters,” and “The Cherry Orchard”—for more than a hundred years have been staged in many theaters around the world and have been adapted for film countless times.

During his writing career, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov created more than five hundred works, many of which became classics of world literature.

The book is read by a popular film actress and a well-known dubbing actress, Yulia Tarkhova.

"They said that a new person had appeared by the embankment: a lady with a dog. Dmitry Dmitrich Gurov, who had been living in Yalta for two weeks and had gotten used to it, also began to take interest in new faces. Sitting in a pavilion at Berné, he saw a young lady walk along the embankment—short, blond, in a beret—with a white Spitz running behind her.

And afterward, he met her in the city garden and on the square, several times a day. She walked alone, in the same beret, with the white Spitz; no one knew who she was, and they simply called her that: a lady with a dog.

‘If she’s here without a husband and without acquaintances,’ Gurov thought, ‘then it wouldn’t hurt to get to know her.’"
