The Cherry Orchard and Other Plays

Collected in this volume are five of Chekhovâ€™s most popular dramatic works: â€œIvanovâ€, â€œThe Sea-Gullâ€, â€œUncle Vanyaâ€, â€œThree Sistersâ€ and â€œThe Cherry Orchardâ€. Firstly in â€œIvanovâ€ we find the taut psychological drama of Nikolai Ivanov, a man who is severely conflicted by the illness of his wife, his mounting debts, and his own internal desires. Secondly, â€œThe Sea-Gullâ€ is the story of the romantic and artistic conflicts between four main characters: Nina, the daughter of a wealthy landowner; Madame Irina Arkadina, a once leading actress; Konstantin Treplyov, her son and a playwright; and Trigorin, a well-known writer. Thirdly, â€œUncle Vanyaâ€ is a melancholic portrait of a cast of characters examining their respective miseries and failures to accomplish in their lives that which they might have hoped to. Fourthly, â€œThree Sistersâ€ is a story which concerns the lives of an aristocratic family, the Prozorovs, who struggle to search for meaning in the modern world. Lastly â€œThe Cherry Orchardâ€ is the tale of an aristocratic Russian woman and her family who return to their estate, a cherry orchard, to oversee its auction in order to pay the mortgage. Taken together this collection of dramas exhibits Chekhovâ€™s literary prowess and provides a brilliant portrait for the dramatic social environment of Russia at the turn of the 20th century. This edition is printed on a premium acid-free paper and follows the translations of Marian Fell and Julius West.
