The writer who found whole lives in the smallest moments, in print and on your e-reader.
In Simply Chekhov, Duke University scholar Carol Apollonio gives an accessible introduction to the life and work of Anton Chekhov, the writer who could turn a family gathering or a quiet disappointment into unforgettable literature. Moving from The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard to the celebrated short stories, Apollonio shows how Chekhov caught people stuck between what they want and what life gives them.
She sets his humour, irony and compassion within late nineteenth-century Russia and explains how he helped transform the short story and modern drama.
