Anton Chekhov - A Life (Hardcover)

Chekhov's life was one long battle with his dependants and with the tuberculosis that was to kill him at the age of 44. This biography aims to show him in the heroism of his short life - at times made hell by a monstrous father, possessive sister and delinquent elder brothers. The drama of Chekhov's life took him all over Russia and the world. Using documents and letters, this work investigates the emotions, conflicts and experiences which Chekhov transmuted into his stories and plays.
