"Swan Song" is a one-act play by Anton Chekhov, which includes a total of nine one-act plays such as "On the Road", "On the Harm of Tobacco", "Swan Song" and "The Bear". They are all short and interesting. Some works have experimental colors, reflecting Chekhov's special style exploration in one-act plays. Among them, "Swan Song" is the most famous. The play depicts an old comedian who bids farewell to his glorious years. He performs a wonderful last performance with a prompter in an empty backstage, just like the swan's final song. As the introduction author of this book, Professor Peng Tao of the Central Academy of Drama, said, "In the inconspicuous 'small form' of the one-act play, Chekhov's profound gaze on life is integrated with humorous laughter, melancholy temperament and optimistic and open-minded spirit are accompanied, and the 'emotional undercurrent' is organically combined with the development of the plot... Chekhov's one-act play is a key to interpreting his multi-act plays."

"The Woodland Monster" is a drama work by Anton Chekhov. It narrates a family story centered on a professor with a weird temper and selfishness. It successfully creates the image of "The Woodland Monster", a doctor with unique ideas but not understood by everyone. It is regarded as a "beautiful dramatic novella". The research community recognizes that "The Forest Monster" is the predecessor of "Uncle Vanya" and is an indispensable part of the complete presentation of Chekhov's drama creation. As Xu Le, the author of the introduction to this book and a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said, "Chekhov never wrote a novel in his life, but he did use "The Forest Monster" as a starting point to create a novel-style drama that had never been seen on the stage before... The playwright tried his best to show people's inner, long-term, habitual depression and the hidden trend of the times in the details of daily conversations, eating and drinking, walking, reading newspapers, and playing cards, in silent pauses or meaningful overtones." This book is the seventh volume of the "Master Guide Edition" of "The Complete Works of Chekhov's Dramas", with audio interpretations of famous scenes from Chekhov's plays.
