Description: |
This unique collection offer a perfect introduction to one of Russia''s - and the world''s - greatest writers. ''The Dual and Other Stories'' is the second in an exclusive three-volume edition of Chekhov''s stories. Encompasing the intricacy and range of social connection, these exquisitely crafted stories trace the mutability of our everyday relationships as they stall, separate or entwine. In the strangely lyrican deadpan prose so characteristic of Chekhov''s drama, they expose the misplaced affections, broke vows, and brilliant dreams of what it is to be human. |
