The essential edition of the greatest stories by the Russian master
of the form Chekhov was without doubt one of the greatest observers
of human nature in all its untidy complexity. His short stories,
written throughout his life and newly translated for this essential
collection, are exquisite masterpieces in miniature. Here are tales
offering a glimpse of beauty, the memory of a mistaken kiss,
daydreams of adultery, a lifetime of marital neglect, the frailty
of life, the inevitability of death, and the hilarious pomposity of
ordinary men and women. They range from the lighthearted comic
tales of his early years to some of the most achingly profound
stories ever composed.
