Anton Chekhov was one of the worldâ s most accomplished short-story writers and this collection displays the breadth and variety of his genius. Part of the Macmillan Collectorâ s Library, a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold-foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
In the Ravine x{0026} Other Stories are translated by Constance Garnett and selected and introduced by novelist Paul Bailey. Chekhov had an incomparable ability to write about the seemingly every day with insight, humour and compassion. His characters are brilliantly drawn, from the church warden whoâ s convinced his wifeâ s a witch because strangers arrive on the doorstep whenever thereâ s a storm, to the wronged wife who confronts her husbandâ s chorus-girl lover, to the melancholy school teacher who imagines how her life might have been.
