About the Author

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born in the provincial town of Taganrog, Ukraine, in 1860. In the mid-1880s, Chekhov became a physician, and shortly thereafter he began to write short stories. Chekhov started writing plays a few years later, mainly short comic sketches he called vaudvilles. The first show more collection of his humorous writings, Motley Stories, appeared in 1886, and his first play, Ivanov, was produced in Moscow the next year. In 1896, the Alexandrinsky Theater in St. Petersburg performed his first full- length drama, The Seagull. Some of Chekhov's most successful plays include The Cherry Orchard, Uncle Vanya, and Three Sisters. Chekhov brought believable but complex personalizations to his characters, while exploring the conflict between the landed gentry and the oppressed peasant classes. Chekhov voiced a need for serious, even revolutionary, action, and the social stresses he described prefigured the Communist Revolution in Russia by twenty years. He is considered one of Russia's greatest playwrights. Chekhov contracted tuberculosis in 1884, and was certain he would die an early death. In 1901, he married Olga Knipper, an actress who had played leading roles in several of his plays. Chekhov died in 1904, spending his final years in Yalta. (Bowker Author Biography) show less

Includes The Man in a Case, Gooseberries, and About Love. About Love was probably my favorite of the three, but Gooseberries might be the most interesting - the discussion in class really improved these stories for me

"Anton Chekhov's plays and stories have become familiar classics in translation, but his remarkable correspondence has been more or less unknown to American readers. Yet the letters show Chekhov intimately as a man and artist, and offer a revealing glimpse of Russian life in the last quarter of the 19th century." from the book jacket

Oli kello kahdeksan aamulla — se aika, jolloin upseerit, virkamiehet ja matkustavaiset tavallisesti kuuman, tukahduttavan yön jälkeen uivat meressä ja sitten tulivat paviljonkiin juomaan kahvia tai teetä. Ivan Andreitsh Lajevski, laihahko, vaaleaverinen, kahdeksankolmatta ikäinen nuorimies, rahaministeriön virkamieslakini päässä ja tohvelit jalassa, tapasi uimaan mennessä rannalla kosolta tuttavia ja niiden joukossa ystävänsä, sotilaslääkäri Samoilenkon.
