Book Description
About The Lady with the Dog and other stories In his final years, Anton Chekhov produced some of his finest, most highly-regarded stories, now considered to be masterpieces of Russian literature. This celebrated collection includes the poignant 'The Lady with the Little Dog' and 'About Love' Chekhov examines the nature of love outside of wedlock. And in stories such as 'Peasants', 'The House with the Mezzanine' and 'My Life' Chekhov vividly depicts the harsh living conditions of the poor and their powerlessness in the face of exploitation. The brilliant, finely nuanced characterisation and spare minimalist style displayed by Chekhov here, inspired modern short-story writers such as Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner.
