Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. "The Bet and Other Stories" is a collection of short stories written by Anton Tchekhov, a renowned Russian writer. The stories in this collection are characterized by their vivid and realistic portrayals of human life, with themes ranging from love and loss to greed and deception. The titular story, "The Bet," centers around a bet made between a wealthy banker and a young lawyer. The banker bets the lawyer two million rubles that he cannot last five years in solitary confinement. The lawyer accepts the bet and the story explores the psychological toll that isolation takes on the young man and the moral dilemma faced by the banker as he considers whether to pay the bet or let the lawyer leave. Other stories in the collection include "Ward No. 6," in which a doctor in a provincial mental asylum becomes disillusioned with his profession and begins to sympathize with his patients, and "The Lady with the Dog," which explores the themes of love, infidelity, and the search for meaning in life. Tchekhov's writing style is characterized by his attention to detail and his ability to create fully realized characters that reflect the complexities of human experience. Overall, "The Bet and Other Stories" is a thought-provoking and engaging collection of short stories that offers a glimpse into the human condition. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hard Cover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. No publisher date (circa 1920s). Lacks jacket. Edges, endpapers, and boards lighty foxed. 1925 Hard Cover. 314 pp. Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (29 January 1860 - 15 July 1904) was a Russian playwright and physician who is considered to be one of the greatest writers of all time. His career as a playwright produced four classics, and his best short stories are held in high esteem by writers and critics. Along with Henrik Ibsen and August Strindberg, Chekhov is often referred to as one of the three seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre. Chekhov was a physician by profession. "Medicine is my lawful wife", he once said, "and literature is my mistress." Chekhov renounced the theatre after the reception of The Seagull in 1896, but the play was revived to acclaim in 1898 by Konstantin Stanislavski's Moscow Art Theatre, which subsequently also produced Chekhov's Uncle Vanya and premiered his last two plays, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard. These four works present a challenge to the acting ensemble as well as to audiences, because in place of conventional action Chekhov offers a "theatre of mood" and a "submerged life in the text". The plays that Chekhov wrote were not complex, but easy to follow, and created a somewhat haunting atmosphere for the audience. Chekhov at first wrote stories to earn money but as his artistic ambition grew, he made formal innovations that influenced the evolution of the modern short story. He made no apologies for the difficulties this posed to readers, insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions, not to answer them.
