Publisher Notes

Short-story writer and Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Ford selects and introduces an essential volume of Chekhov tales. Although most people know and define Chekhov by his plays, some believe his short stories surpass his plays in artistry. One thing is clear: Anton Chekhov is one of the greatest short story writers of all time. In "The Essential Tales of Chekhov," Richard Ford, a master short story writer in his own right, introduces and selects the definitive tales of Anton Chekhov. Ford includes the Chekhov masterpieces, such as "The Lady with the Dog," "The Kiss," and "The Darling" as well as a number of brilliant lesser-known stories. This collection is a must-have for Chekhov enthusiasts and those less familiar with his extraordinary short stories.
