| Summary |
Here are the eleven short stories by Anton Chekhov, one of the finest masters of what is acknowledged a difficult genre. There is the richly comic 'Oh! The Public' about a hassled ticket inspector, a wry look at morals and manners in 'The Chorus Girl', and the melancholic tale of a cab driver in 'Misery'. Perhaps the finest of all is the novella 'In The Ravine', a minutely observed look at life in a village through the eyes of one family. |
