Chekhov's Notes
by I
About This Novel
Chekhov had many notebooks, which contained momentary feelings he jotted down in his life, rough drafts, sketches of future works, reading experiences, and best practices copied from other writers' books. The notes are not only a memorandum of his literary creation, but also an index of his mature works. Ten years after his death, his wife Knibil made the "Chekhov's Notes" after rigorous selection and organization and made it public. Woolf's husband Leonard once co-translated "Notes" into English and published it. The Chinese translation was first released in 1953. With the fate of the translator Jia Zhifang, it was buried in the library for nearly thirty years until it was reprinted in 1982. In his words, the fate of this translation was also the fate of his life.
