Story
Autor irrepetible, forjador de un nuevo modo de ver y contar, maestro del cuento, la literatura en Chéjov se filtra en cada palabra que esculpía, más allá de su obra de ficción: "la literatura es mi amante". Amor, vida y literatura. Eso es lo que el lector disfrutará con esta compilación de cartas y aforismos en los que la figura de Chéjov aumenta, crece y nos atraviesa porque quizá no haya mejor lectura que internarse en la mente, en las palabras secretas, en la sensibilidad de un genio.

Story
Manchmal gebären die widrigsten und unmöglichsten Umstände, die man schlicht nicht erfinden kann, einen Autoren, dessen Literatur den Menschen den Atem verschlägt. Der unmögliche Fall, der so absurd klingt, dass er nur wahr sein kann. Ständige Geldnöte, Verurteilung zum Tode, mehrjährige Gefängnisstrafe in angeketteter Einzelhaft, Verbot des Aufenthalts in Moskau und in Sankt Petersburg, Spielsucht, um ein paar der Schwierigkeiten zu erwähnen, welche das Schicksal letztendlich zu Voraussetzungen umwandelte, die Dostojewski in die Lage versetzten zu einem Titanen der Welt-Literatur zu werden.
