From one of Russiaâs greatest writers, Anton Chekhov, an indispensable collection of stories, full of humor, truth, and vast insight, selected and introduced by modern American virtuoso Richard Ford, available in a deluxe paperback editionâpart of the Ecco Art of the Story series.
One of the most beloved Russian writers, Anton Chekov had an indelible influence on many revered modern writers, including Richard Ford, Raymond Carver, Robert Stone, Nadine Gordimer, William Maxwell, and Ernest Hemingway. In this superb anthology, Ford, a master of short fiction in his own right, has chosen twenty of his personal favorites from among more than two hundred of Chekhovâs tales and short novels.
Though they were composed more than a century ago, Chekhovâs stories hold timeless lessons and insights invaluable in our own age. The Essential Tales of Chekhov Deluxe Edition includes familiar masterpieces âThe Kiss,â âThe Darling,â and âThe Lady with the Dog,â as well as several brilliant lesser-known talesââA Blunder,â âHush!,â and âChampagne.â These stories, ordered chronologically from 1886 to 1899, are drawn from Chekhovâs most fruitful years as a short story writer. The translation is done by the renowned Constance Garnett, who also brought Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, and Turgenev to the English-speaking world.
