Аннотация
Сборник пьес А. Чехова в пер. М. Фрэйна. Четыре из восьми переводов ранее печатались отдельными изданиями.
This volume includes The Seagull, a tale about the battle for power between a mother and her son_that ends in tragedy; Uncle Vanya tells of two obsessive love affairs that lead nowhere, and a flirtation that brings disaster; Three Sisters, in which three siblings wrestle with their futures; and The Cherry Orchard, where the old must inevitably give way to the new.
Haunting and elusive, these four masterpieces have found in Michael Frayn a translator who perfectly captures their delicate balance of the tragic and the absurd. The volume also contains four of Chekhov's early short "vaudevilles" as well as a substantial introduction by Michael Frayn.
