About the author
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904) was a Russian playwright, short-story writer, and physician. Born in Taganrog, he studied medicine in Moscow while developing a parallel career as a writer, first publishing humorous sketches and short fiction before gaining wide recognition.
Chekhov transformed both the short story and the stage through his subtle characterization, understated humor, and attention to the complexity of everyday life. His best-known plays—The Seagull, Uncle Vanya, Three Sisters, and The Cherry Orchard—became central works of modern drama, especially through productions by the Moscow Art Theatre.
He continued practicing medicine throughout much of his life and was also known for his philanthropy. Although his career was cut short by illness, Chekhov remains widely regarded as one of the greatest short-story writers and dramatists in literary history.
