Stories (130+) DIFFICULT PEOPLE, THE LOTTERY TICKET, A STORY WITHOUT AN END, THE HORSE-STEALERS, WARD NO. 6 AND OTHERS Anton Chekhov epub pdf fb2 формат

Stories by Anton Chekhov are short, but deep idea and complexity of literature composition are hidden behind their simplicity. Compactness, outstanding humour, irony and rich content make the stories unique with no equals in the world literature. Maksim Gorky wrote: “Nobody but Anton Chekhov understood so clearly and delicately the tragedy of little things of life, nobody before him could so grimly and truthfully describe people shameful and sad picture of their life in a dim chaos of bourgeois commonness.”
