Anton Chekhov— a Russian writer, universally recognized classic of world literature, a subtle psychologist who perfectly combines humor and lyricism in his works.
The meaning of Chekhov’s creative work is important and instructive for readers around the world. The main hero of Chekhov’s works is always an ordinary person with the most ordinary everyday concerns and affairs. In Chekhov’s works, events occurring around the characters take a back seat as a fleeting incidental occurrence, while the ordinary, steady, daily recurring and familiar to everyone forms the foundation of the entire content of the work, whether it is a story or a play. The largest part of almost all Chekhov’s works is a detailed description of everyday life, through which the features of moods, characters, and feelings—as well as the relationships between the heroes—are conveyed to the reader.
This edition includes the most famous Chekhov novellas and short stories written in different years.
