| Resumen |
One of the foremost dramatists of the 19th century; Russian author Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) created a body of work noted for its realistic dialogue and keen insights into human relationships. This collection of five one-act plays- in the celebrated Constance Garnett tranlations- shows Chekhov at his witty best.
The Anniversary take a lively look behind the frenetic scenes at a bank: a man overburdebed with errands from friends and family gives a nearly maddened but ludicrous account of his chres and obligations in An Unwilling recetion in which the mother of the bride assumes affected airs and deals with quarrelsome guests. In The Bear, a virtuous,spirited widow is pressed to repay a debt and ends up receiving an offer of marriage. The Proposal depicts the trauma of a would-be suitor who winds up in a wrangle over property. |
