Anton Chekhov

In 1890, the thirty-year-old Chekhov, already knowing that he was ill with tuberculosis, undertook an arduous eleven-week journey from Moscow across Siberia to the penal colony on the island of Sakhalin. Now collected here in one volume are the fully annotated translations of his impressions of his trip through Siberia and the account of his three-month sojourn on Sakhalin Island, together with his notes and extracts from his letters to relatives and associates. Highly valuable both as a detailed depiction of the Tsarist system of penal servitude and as an insight into Chekhov’s motivations and objectives for visiting the colony and writing the exposé, Sakhalin Island is a haunting work which had a huge impact both on Chekhov’s career and on Russian society.

Don't be miserable, you wonderful woman; be a mermaid. There's the ocean; throw yourself in. Fall in love with some poor mortal and drag him down with you. Astonish us! On an isolated country estate, Sonia and her Uncle Vanya are committed to a life of ceaseless toil. But when the ageing invalid Serebriakov and his bewilderingly beautiful young wife take up residence, a yearning envelops the household and disturbs the accustomed tedium. Friend and confidant Astrov grows lovelorn, Sonia's heart breaks and even Vanya falls under the spell. And so they fight, bond, belittle, lament, make peace and contemplate the odd murder. Featuring sex, comedy and unbearable sadness in nineteenth-century Russia, this version of Anton Chekhov's Uncle Vanya was written and directed by Terry Johnson and opened at Hampstead Theatre, London, in November 2018. And having weathered the storm, what's left? My feelings for you; a few droplets on a window pane, catching the sun, running down a way, drying to nothing.

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904) - odin iz samykh izvestnykh dramaturgov mira, priznannyj klassik, sozdatel stsenicheskoj literatury KHKh veka, ne utrativshej noviznu i aktualnost po sej den. On pisal pesy, po sobstvennomu vyrazheniju, "vopreki vsem pravilam dramaticheskogo iskusstva". Istoricheskaja udacha sostojala v tom, chto v Rossii nashelsja kongenialnyj dramaturgu Moskovskij Khudozhestvennyj teatr pod rukovodstvom K. Stanislavskogo i V.

I uzhe, kazhetsja, ni u kogo ne vyzyvaet voprosov "strannost" chekhovskogo podkhoda: "Ved v zhizni ne kazhduju minutu streljajutsja, veshajutsja, objasnjajutsja v ljubvi. I ne kazhduju minutu govorjat umnye veschi... Bolshe edjat, pjut, volochatsja, govorjat gluposti. I vot nado, chtoby eto bylo vidno na stsene. Nado sozdat takuju pesu, gde by ljudi prikhodili, ukhodili, obedali, razgovarivali o pogode, igrali v vint, no ne potomu, chto tak nuzhno avtoru, a potomu, chto tak proiskhodit v dejstvitelnoj zhizni".

"Spectacular... This new Vanya has a conversational smoothness that removes the cobwebs sticking to those other translations that never let you forget that the play was written in 1897... One of the most exquisite renderings of Uncle Vanya I've encountered." --Charles McNulty, Los Angeles Times "Quietly arresting... A canny and colloquial world-premiere translation... A beautifully rewarding exploration of stunted lives still bending toward the meager sunlight, like wildflowers sprouting from a cracked sidewalk." --James Hebert, San Diego Union-Tribune As the sixth play in the TCG Classic Russian Drama Series, Richard Nelson and preeminent translators of Russian literature, Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, continue their collaboration with Chekhov's most intimate play.
