Uncle Vania is Chekhov's best loved and perhaps his best composed
play, yet this is the first book to be solely devoted to it in any
language. Donald Rayfield brings his twenty years of research and
writing and a century of others' critical studies to focus on
Chekhov's art. He offers a close reading and interpretation of the
play, paying special attention to the way in which it evolved from
its prototype, the rarely performed comedy The Wood Demon. This
study of Chekhov's emergence as a dramatist of genius will be
invaluable to students of drama, for here, for the first time, we
can watch as a playwright turns failure into success and thus learn
technical secrets of his art.
