Anton Chekhov is a unique force in modern drama, his works
cherished for their brilliant wit and insight into the human
condition. In this stunning new translation of one of Chekhov s
most popular and beloved plays, Laurence Senelick presents a fresh
perspective on the master playwright and his groundbreaking dramas.
He brings this timeless trial of art and love to life as memorable
characters have clashing desires and lose balance in the shifting
eruptions of society and a modernizing Russia. Supplementing the
play is an account of Chekhov s life; a note on the translation; an
introduction to the work; and variant lines, often removed due to
government censorship, which illuminate the context in which they
were written. This edition is the perfect guide to enriching our
understanding of this great dramatist or to staging a production."
