Relying on subtlety and clever characterisation rather than explicit action, his sketches of Russian life bring out comedy, tragedy and all aspects of human nature. This collection features some of Chekhov's most celebrated stories, including 'Vanka', 'The Lady with a Dog' and 'Sleepy'. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Classics series brings together high-quality paperback editions of classics works, presented with contemporary graphic cover designs. Together they make a wonderful collection which is perfect for any home library.
- About The Author
- Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) was one of Russia's greatest short story writers, a playwright and a novelist. He worked as a doctor, too, and initially began writing for the financial rewards it presented. Constance Garnett (1861-1946) was an English translator of nineteenth-century Russian literature. She was the first to translate Dostoyevsky and Chekhov into English and these translations remain highly acclaimed.
