Summary |
""Pevear and Volokhonsky are at once scrupulous translators and vivid stylists of English."-The New Yorker. There have always been two versions of Chekhov's heartrending and humorous masterwork: the one with which we are all familiar, staged by Konstantin Stanislavski at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1904, and the one Chekhov originally wrote. Now, for the first time in any language, both full versions are available in a single volume. By re-constructing the original pre-rehearsal script that Chekhov submitted, the translators shed new and surprising light on one of the central works of the modern theater. "-- Back cover. |
