Beschreibung
This book contains his well-known short story Kashtanka and some short tales which were translated by Constance Garnett. A young appearing mongrel named Kashtanka who belonged to the drunken carpenter Luka Alexandrovich gets lost due to her own "improper behavior" after being startled by a military band on the street. Needy and starving (“She surely would have thought that such a life was not feasible if she had been a person. I must commit suicide! "), she congregates by an unknown house's door. “The Tales of Chekhov” by Anton Chekhov consists of various interesting tales which were written by Richard Ford, a skilled storyteller in his own right, who personally selected the twenty stories from Anton Chekhov’s two hundred that are included in this remarkable anthology." These tales, arranged in chronological order from 1886 to 1899, come from Chekhov’s most productive years as a short story author. They provide a really well-rounded selection and highlight the traits that make Chekhov one of the greatest fiction authors of all time, including his talent for dialogue, humor, and emotional intuition as well as his awareness of how often the most significant events in life go unnoticed.
