5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT series of books, June 16, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Bishop and Other Stories (The Tales of Chekhov) (Paperback)
I admit I'm a big fan of Russian lit, and these Chekhov short stories (from this volume and all the other volumes) are one of the reasons why. They are lovely, quirky, sensitive, insightful, funny, and give a marvelous glimpse into Russian life from a century-plus ago. I prefer the Constance Garnett translations (a less common preference). It seems Russian scholars think she's a bit old-school, but I like the way she captures the charm of the time.

My bookseller was Summanulla books, and I can't say enough good things about the person from whom I ordered. He was patient, thorough, and extremely helpful. My books arrived on time, packed with meticulous care. This seller will be my first stop for all future book purchases.
