About Love and Other Stories

ISBN: 9780199536689 出版年：2008 页码：246 Chekhov, Anton Bartlett, Rosamund Oxford University Press

The importance of Chekhov's stories is now recognized by readers as well as by fellow authors. Their themes - alienation, the absurdity and tragedy of human existence - have as much relevance today as when they were written, and this superb new translation captures their modernist spirit. Among the fourteen stories included are 'The Lady with the Little Dog', 'Gusev', and 'Rothschild's Violin'.
