This is the most representative selection of Chekhov's early comic and serious stories available in one volume in English. This selection, including the pastoral comedy Romance with Double-Bass, the absurdist comedy The Death of a Civil Servant, the hauntingly lyrical Easter Night, and the chilling Let Me Sleep, to name a few, exemplifies the masterful range of the young Chekhov.
