Anton Chekhov Sakhalin IslandАвтор - Chekhov Anton Объем - 231 Дизайн: Бройт Всеволод Ефимович Корректор: Тюпин Трофим Ааронович В формате: pdf, fb2, txt, epub Год печати - 2019 Аннотация: "Sakhalin Island" In 1890, the thirty year old Chekhov, already knowing that he was ill with tuberculosis, undertook an arduous eleven week journey from Moscow across Siberia to the penal colony on the island of Sakhalin. Now collected here in one volume are the fully annotated translations of his impressions of his trip through Siberia and the account of his three month sojourn on Sakhalin Island, together with his notes and extracts from his letters to relatives and associates. Highly valuable both as a detailed depiction of the Tsarist system of penal servitude and as an insight into Chekhov's motivations and objectives for visiting the colony and writing the expose, Sakhalin Island is a haunting work which had a huge impact both on Chekhov's career and on Russian society.
