Love and Other Stories

Elusive and subtle, spare and unadorned, the stories in this selection are among Chekhov''s most poignant and lyrical. The book includes well-known pieces such as The Lady with the Little Dog, as well as less familiar work like Gusev inspired by Chekhov''s travels in the Far East, and Rothschild''s Violin, a haunting and darkly humorous tale about death and loss. The stories are arranged chronologically to show the evolution of Chekhov''s art. (Goodreads)
