Description

by Rosamund Bartlett (Editor), Elena Michajlowska (Editor), Anton Chekhov (Author)

This volume comprises a complete annotated translaton of Anton Chekhov's fifty eight earliest stories, arranged in chronological order. Written between 1880 and 1882, when Chekhov was in his early twenties and still at medical school, they were all published in comic magazines. Many have never been translated before. Ranging from comic tales, hilarious skits to literary parodies, outrageous potboilers and poignant novellas, they offer a revealing window into this little known early chapter of Chekhov's life and literary career. The collection represents the conclusion of a unique "crowd-translated" project involving eighty five volunteers from nine countries, including the editors. Due to the collaborative nature of the early processes of revision, the translations are collectively ascribed.

Author Biography

Rosamund Bartlett is the author of Chekhov: Scenes from a Life (Free Press), editor and co-translator of Chekhov: A Life in Letters (Penguin Classics), and translator of two anthologies of Chekhov's stories: About Love and Other Stories (Oxford World's Classics) and The Exclamation Mark and Other Stories (Hesperus Press)


Elena Michajlowska is a trustee of the Anton Chekhov Foundation. She completed an MA in screenwriting and production at the University of Westminster, and has worked on numerous film, art and tech projects, including PutschYourself, an interactive documentary prompted by the Soviet coup of 1991 exploring state violence and collective memory.
