Description

This anthology provides an unusual selection of stories and a play from among the author's own favorites, including "The Student" and "The Three Sisters." Drawing from such rare artifacts as the Moscow Art Theatre's album from its production of "The Three Sisters" (with Chekhov's wife in the role of Masha) and Vladimir Nabokov's handwritten lecture notes on Chekhov's oeuvre, this Collector's Edition of most-loved works offers readers the chance to become acquainted with Chekhov's tender show more humor through the author's own choices from among his poignant and whimsical tales. show less
