Descriere

The book shows Chekhov as a writer with a synthetic ethical worldview on which his poetics are based. The book's key finding is that modern temporality lies at the centre of Chekhov's work. This conclusion is reached by comparing narrative representation of time in non-fictional Sakhalin Island, short fiction and drama.
