Re: I had never read Checkov but your review was fantastic introduction to him
I am so indebted to you for taking so much pleasure from my contribution; it is indeed based on the Rise and Fall of Russia. Looks as if we'll see each other quite often. I too love your very artistic blog, and you are no less an accomplished writer yourself.

I loved your dissection of the piece. It seems to echo the rise and fall of Russia itself throughout its long history. Your piece was so well-written, it was a great pleasure considering that I no longer have the time to read the masterpieces you have studied so thoroughly.

While reading your post I was reminded of the cotton plantations from "Gone with the wind"....................such symbols often used in literature reflect the changing times & status of different classes.

Romor..
These Russian writers, I do agree, have a most convoluted sense of literature, so different that we know of Europeans, especially that of the Shakespearean, that it becomes diificult to hold candles to any, but their theatrical success have been phenomenal all right, and that is why the sharing.
