Product Overview
The dramatic works of Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) present the actions of ordinary people. He avoids any explicit political treatment, but the depth and subtlety of his art has generated a wealth of interpretation. His representation of human relationships is infinitely sympathetic, and each play contains at least one character who expresses Chekhov's hopes for a brighter future. The Cherry Orchard and Three Sisters was first published in this translation in 1951. The Seagull , Uncle Vania , The Bear , The Proposal and The Jubilee were first published in this translation in 1954.
