The Greatest Short Stories of Anton Chekhov Tapa blanda - 2019

Believed to be one of the greatest short story writers in the history of literature, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904) came from humble beginnings but rose in popularity as a playwright and short story writer. He wrote humorous sketches and vignettes of contemporary Russian life under a pseudonym. His freelance journalism and comic writings made him immensely popular in the Russian public and literary circles by 1888. In 1887, The Lottery Ticket, one of Chekhov's most well-known short stories, was published. Russian drama saw its high point when Chekhov's plays came out. He wrote fourteen plays, of which four were critically acclaimed-- The Seagull (written in 1895), Uncle Vanya (written in 1897), The Three Sisters (written in 1900), and The Cherry Orchard (written in 1903). His stories that created a stir in Russia include ' Peasants' (1897), ' The Black Monk' (1894), ' An Anonymous Story' (1893), ' The Student' (1894), ' Gooseberries' (1898), and ' About Love' (1898), among others. His works have been adapted for screen and continue to be read and celebrated even today.
