Garnett Press Books

This is a new, revised and expanded edition of the 1997 biography of Chekhov that was highly praised by Arthur Miller, Michael Frayn and many Russian critics. Since then it has been a best-seller in Russian (four editions) and has also been translated into French, Spanish and Chinese. Each new version has been updated: it is now time for English-speaking readers to have an equally accurate and full second edition: not only have mistakes been corrected, but new information on Chekhov's illness, marriage and friends has been included. A number of illustrations, including colour plates, appear for the first time outside Russia. ISBN 978-0-9564683-5-2
