Sobre l'autor

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904) stands among the most significant figures in Russian literature. A master of short fiction, his works exhibit a profound humanism, keen observation of character, and attunement to the complexities of life. Chekhov's medical background, graduating from the Moscow University medical school, informed his literature with a distinctive sensitivity to both the physical and psychological states of his characters. His narrative style, often eschewing the dramatic for the understate, invites readers into the subtleties of everyday existence, rendering the mundane as a tapestry of emotional depth. In 'My Life' (1896), Chekhov's novella presents a penetrating exploration of a man's quest for autonomy against societal expectations, encapsulating his ideals of personal freedom and the forces that encroach upon it. Chekhov's contribution extends beyond storytelling; his plays, notably 'The Cherry Orchard', 'The Seagull', 'Uncle Vanya', and 'Three Sisters', revolutionized modern theatre through their use of natural dialogue and the subtext driving the characters' interactions. Chekhov's death at the early age of 44 left a legacy that influenced the development of the modern short story and drama, shaping the path for realist writing to follow. His works continue to be revered for their stark yet compassionate portrayal of human fragility and resilience.
