Description:
Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House (undated). Ex-library hardback copy with the usual stamps etc. Good with no DW. One page 177/178 creased during manufacture. No inscriptions. 415 pages plus numerous excellent B/W photographs of Chekhov, his family and places where he lived. It is interesting now to read this example of Soviet literary criticism. The life and works of Chekhov are analysed with considerable perception but the author tries too hard to position Chekhov as a precursor of the Marxist revolution. .
