""Letters of Anton Chekhov"" is a collection of personal letters written by the famous Russian author Anton Chekhov to various family members, friends, and literary colleagues. The letters cover a period of over 25 years, from 1884 to 1903, and provide insight into Chekhov's personal life, his writing process, and his opinions on various topics. The book is edited and translated by Constance Garnett, a renowned translator of Russian literature, and includes over 500 letters, many of which have never before been published in English. The letters offer a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest writers of the 19th century and provide a valuable resource for scholars and fans of Chekhov's work alike.... Even your praise of ""On the Road"" has not softened my anger as an author, and I hasten to avenge myself for ""Mire."" Be on your guard, and catch hold of the back of a chair that you may not faint.
