About This Novel
In his literary career of a quarter century, Chekhov, the master of world literature, left behind a large number of short stories with unique style, strict structure, concise language and sharp satire for future generations. This book includes 25 short stories including "Chameleon", "Wanka", "The Man in the Trap" and "The Sixth Ward". In these works, the author uses ordinary people's trivial things common in the Russian society of the 19th century as the material. With superb artistic techniques and a unique perspective, he powerfully exposes and criticizes the decadent and declining social system. He makes a bitter satire on the vulgarity, greed, and speculation of the small citizens, and expresses his deep sympathy for the working people at the bottom of society. Chekhov's short stories are thought-provoking and thought-provoking. They not only make you feel the joy of drinking, but also make you smile knowingly. These short stories truly have a timeless appeal and are always worth reading.
