(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Aanton Chekhov, widely hailed as the supreme master of the short story, also wrote five works long enough to be called short novels–here brought together in one volume for the first time, in a masterly new translation by the award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky.
The Steppe –the most lyrical of the five–is an account of a nine-year-old boy’s frightening journey by wagon train across the steppe of southern Russia. The Duel sets two decadent figures–a fanatical rationalist and a man of literary sensibility–on a collision course that ends in a series of surprising reversals. In The Story of an Unknown Man , a political radical spying on an important official by serving as valet to his son gradually discovers that his own terminal illness has changed his long-held priorities in startling ways. Three Years recounts a complex series of ironies in the personal life of a rich but passive Moscow merchant. In My Life , a man renounces wealth and social position for a life of manual labor.
The resulting conflict between the moral simplicity of his ideals and the complex realities of human nature culminates in a brief apocalyptic vision that is unique in Chekhov’s work.

購書四年多，終於在今天凌晨讀完。最喜歡第三個故事，最後一個故事後半段寫的好。讀一本這樣的小說感覺像是看了五十部相同題材的影視作品，喪到最高處後又在縫隙中看到一絲光芒。

评分Kindred spirit. Not afraid to confront the nothingness of life and futileness of love. Feelings are fleeting, yet life needs to be grounded in conventions. Is labour the answer? Is the meaning of life ultimately realized through labour (not work)? You can see the communist seeds in these seemingly informal reflections of the quotidian.
