Reknowned Russian writer Anton Chekhov wrote almost one-thousand stories rich in humanity, sensitivity, empathy, wisdom, soul, insight, and--importantly-a beautiful, bewitching, subtle humor. Oh, and by the way, he also is considered the greatest dramatist of the 19th and early 20th Century. This is a collection of his best fiction. To make this a definitive edition of his essential short stories, Watersgreen House selected those stories that are readers' favorites, most-anthologized, deemed his best by literati, or were deemed "first quality" by his early admirer Tolstoy (who had them bound into a book for himself). .......... "I heartily recommend taking as often as possible Chekhov's books and dreaming through them as they are intended to be dreamed through. In an age of ruddy Goliaths it is very useful to read about delicate Davids. Those bleak landscapes, the withered sallows along dismally muddy roads, the gray crows flapping across gray skies, the sudden whiff of some amazing recollection at a most ordinary corner-all this pathetic dimness, all this lovely weakness, all this Chekhovian dove-gray world is worth treasuring in the glare of those strong, self-sufficient worlds that are promised us by the worshippers of totalitarian states." - Vladimir Nabokov
