The Duel (and other stories). E-book. Formato EPUB ebook di Anton Chekhov

"The Duel" is a tale of human weakness, the possibility of forgiveness, and a man’s ultimate ability to change his ways. It is classic Chekhov, revealing the multifaceted essence of human nature.
First published in 1891, this morality tale pits a scientist, a government worker, his mistress, a deacon, and a physician against one another in a verbal battle of wits and ethics that explodes into a violent contest: the duel. When Laevsky, a lazy youth who works for the government, tires of his dependent mistress, Nadyezhda Fyodorovna, Von Koren, the scientist, delivers a scathing critique of Loevsky’s egotism, forcing the young man to examine his soul.

This volume contains another 7 amazing stories: "Excellent People"; "Mire"; "Neighbours"; "At Home"; "Expensive Lessons"; "The Princess"; and, "The Chemist’s Wife".
