Show Notes

This week we bring you another story by Anton Chekhov, “The Artist’s Story”. I like this one because it shows Chekhov’s political side with a dash of romance mixed in. One reviewer said of Chekhov “…you realize what a master storyteller Chekhov really is. He constructs a story so elegantly — the characters displayed like fine silver on a table setting.”
