Q: What do Tiger, Paris, Lindsay, Alec, and Oprah have in common
with the enduring characters of Anton Chekhov?
A: Love, loss, pride, yearning, heartbreak, renewal,
transcendence: the very stuff of life.The immortal stories of Anton
Chekhov have long entranced readers with their insights into the
universal truths of human behavior . . . but you've never read them
quite like this. Former friends Nicole and Paris exchange prickly
pleasantries in "Tall and Short."Talk-show host Dave narrowly
averts another potential domestic crisis in "A
Transgression."Reality star Kim shares her newfound notoriety with
Khloe and Kourtney in "Joy."
In a witty, graceful, and revelatory feat of literary
reinvention, acclaimed novelist and humorist Ben Greenman takes
nineteen of Chekhov's greatest stories and recasts them with some
of the best-known luminaries of our time--with eye-opening, and
oddly ennobling, results.
