"Nikolai Ivanov, approaching middle-age, has lost all passion for life. No longer in love with his wife, riddled with debt, and in danger of losing his estate, Ivanov finds himself trapped in a stasis he cannot shake-dragging all of those in his orbit down with him. While his family and friends rally around him trying to help, Ivanov only seems to sink further into the darkness that threatens to consume him. A new translation of Chekhov's character study of a man undone by his own spiritual malaise"-- Provided by publisher

"Il Gabbiano è anche un'allegoria spietata di quel male inevitabile, di quel fumoso ed ubriaco fuoco di rèsina, che è l'invaghimento di un quarantenne per una fanciulla, e, viceversa, l'estatica infatuazione di una fanciulla per un quarantenne. Trigòrin cerca evasioni e rifiorimento nell'amore di Nina che incarna la giovinezza, e la giovinezza Nina rifugge il giovane Trepliòv innamorato, per fuggir con Trigòrin, al quale l'Arkàdina, come lui quarantenne, nella paura di perderlo, si aggrappa disperatamente, assalendolo con un mare mellifluo di tenerezze, di scaltri vezzeggiativi". (Dalla Nota introduttiva di A. M. Ripellino)

Lachtränen garantiert! Gogols Stück über den trägen Hofrat Podkoljossin mit seiner ausgeprägten Angst vor der Ehe sprüht nur so vor Sprach-, Charakter- und Situationskomik. Podkoljossins umtriebiger Freund, die Heiratsvermittlerin, die Braut und ihre abgewiesenen Freier verursachen einen Wirbel absurder Ereignisse - kann sich der Held durch einem Sprung aus dem Fenster retten?

A fresh, contemporary adaptation of Chekhov's masterpiece from celebrated playwright Conor McPherson.

A brief profile of the Russian writer prefaces the texts of three plays characterized by their realistic portrayal of Russian life.

Published to tie in with the world premiere at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin In Chekhov's tragi-comedy - perhaps his most popular play - the Gayev family is torn by powerful forces, forces rooted deep in history and in the society around them. Their estate is hopelessly in debt: urged to cut down their beautiful cherry orchard and sell the land for holiday cottages, they struggle to act decisively. Tom Murphy's fine vernacular version allows us to re-imagine the events of the play in the last days of Anglo-Irish colonialism. It gives this great play vivid new life within our own history and social consciousness.
