Chekhov's perspective
Be objective and calm without losing emotion. Each character and their living conditions are vividly portrayed. While we see ugliness, we can also see truth, goodness and beauty. This is the society and life he writes about. The reasoning is also very insightful. Great book, highly recommended.
The characters in it are all pitiful.
An interesting and in-depth novel, worth reading
Passing mission. . . . . .
Can be worth seeing
The background of the times is different, and there is a little difficulty in reading.
Death of a small civil servant
Small incidents put me in dire straits. In fact, some big shots really don't care about your offense or your humble apology. They don't treat you as a human being at all.
Deep? Floating in bottomless, invisible sewage.
Society's ignorance, but there's nothing we can do about it
Chekhov's novels are always good
