He feels and bears the spiritual distress that belongs to us all before us and is stronger than us... Is Platonov noble or despicable? Tragic or tragic? Is it comic? Will it make people cry or laugh? Should we sympathize with him or despise him? ... The 19-year-old Chekhov leaves today's people at a loss, and the modernity of "The Man Without a Father" may lie in this.
