So full of details!

My interest in Russian literature began 35 years ago with the discovery of a Russian writer whose work was so very different from Tolsoy, Turgenev, and Gogal,...Anton Chekhov. I own, and have read many times, four different author's views on the life of Antosha. Philip Callow's book gives so many new details about Chekhov, that one comes away with a new perspective into the personality of this magnificent writer. If you are enjoy reading Chekhov and about Chekhov, I heartally recommend this book!

A fine biography of Russia's dramatist

Philip Callow's Chekhov: The Hidden Ground provides a fine biography of Russia's dramatist, examining his life within the context of his work and considering his divided world and achievements. Plenty of titles have analyzed his works: this provides essential clues to understanding his personality.
