The Life of Chekhov (collected Works of Nemirovsky)
About This Novel
The biography "Chekhov's Life" was first published in 1946, telling the "fireworks" life of Russian literary master Anton Chekhov. Chekhov was born in poverty and initially wrote novels just to make a living, until he met an older Bole who guided and encouraged him through letters. Literary successes and failures came one after another, and illness and loneliness often accompanied him, but he always maintained sincerity and goodwill towards the people around him. The turbulent words written by Nemilovsky actually calmed down and softened when describing Chekhov. "However, among the indifferent crowd, Chekhov's wife and mother cuddled tightly and supported each other. Among all the people in the world, they were the only ones Chekhov ever truly loved deeply." Only when you see this and close the page can you really understand what is "mixed with fun, sadness and quiet disappointment" and what is "crystal indifference." Behind the fatigue and loneliness, I always hope to capture a glimmer of pure beauty that lights up the world - this is Chekhov written by Elena Nemirovsky, and it is also Elena Nemirovsky herself. --Yuan Xiaoyi
