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.

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.
