About Love and Other Stories
Oxford World’s Classics
The importance of Chekhov’s stories is now recognized by readers as well as by fellow authors. Their themes – alienation, the absurdity and tragedy of human existence – have as much relevance today as when they were written, and this superb new translation captures their modernist spirit. Among the fourteen stories included are ‘The Lady with the Little Dog’, ‘Gusev’, and ‘Rothschild’s Violin’.
