Public domain · added by Library
Chekhov ends stories where other writers would start them, and the title story here — an affair that refuses to stay an affair — is the most imitated short story ever written. Garnett's classic translation, one sitting per story.
Pick a finish date and Genius lays out the days — the plan shows today's target and keeps you honest.
Start a circle and share the code — everyone sees everyone's honest place in the book. Accountability, not leaderboards.
- Anyone with twenty minutes and a taste for the real - Writers, who all steal from him eventually - Readers easing from summaries into literature
