A doctor, who explored Russia (he traveled even to Sakhalin island) and the Russian mind as well. His stories and plays are all dedicated to everyday life. Every time one reads him there is a feeling as if someone smart is telling an ironic story about yourself. Chekhov, as a narrator, gives an impression of a kind and a honest person, so if you believe that a man is the perfect undoubting creature who makes no mistakes, don’t read him or your confidence will collapse. I advise you to start with his philosophical and intelligent short stories and then move to plays where his philosophy is a bit smashed by obligatory theatre dynamics.
