3. Side note: Unlike many contemporary Russian writers, Anton Chekhov did not. 3.3 – Writing: Dead Metaphors to Irony – Year 9 This book contains the complete text of 'Sakhalin Island' 300 pages, Chekhovs treatise describing his visit in 1890 to the Russian penal colonies on Sakhalin Island, and 'Across Siberia' 30 pages, a description of his journey across Siberia to Sakhalin. 2.5 – Unseen Poetry – Approaching Unseen Poetry for GCSE. 2.4 – The Sound & Rhythm of Power & Conflict Poetry (AQA) Redwood, Anton chekhovs home and a visit to friends: The dichotomy between the personal and the professional, or the lawyer subjectified and objectified - PhilPapers The busy life of the practicing attorney is proverbial and leaves but little room and time for the demands of home. 2.3 – Lyric Poetry Scheme of Work – Year 9 HOSPITAUTY was a veritable passion with Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. 1.4 – The Why of Fiction – A Year 9 Scheme of Work. 1.3 – The How of Fiction – A Year 8 Scheme of Work. 1.2 – What of Fiction: Ghost Stories – A Year 7 Scheme of Work. 1.1 – Favourite Fiction – Year 7 Book Review. 0.0 – 10 Lesson Scheme of Work to Introduce Debating at Key Stage 3/4. …it’s as though for once, in late Chekhov, the ‘working-out’ is on show, and the effect is undermined: the ambiguity and the beauty of Chekhov exists in his ability to give us just enough of a character or a scene to render it, where he goes too far, as he does here, how well he does it in his other stories is all too clear. This one does feel a little ‘ploddy’, a little tired, a little not-bothered – witness: “The tower’s black shadow stretching over the earth, far into the fields… all this was just like a dream.” Or “He felt annoyed and his only thought was that here, in a country garden on a moonlit night, close to a beautiful, loving, thoughtful girl, he felt the same apathy as on Little Bronny Street: evidently this type of romantic situation had lost its fascination, like that prosaic depravity.” Chekhov’s grandfather was a serf who bought his family’s freedom in 1841. He was the third of six children of Pavel Yegorovich Chekhov, a grocery store owner. 
And when one is looking for reasons to dislike… ‘A Visit to Friends’ by Anton Chekhov (1898) by INFOBOOKS Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born in Taganrog, southern Russia, on the Sea of Azov, on January 17, 1860. Knowing this, it’s rather easy for the reader to take a dislike to it.
For some reason Chekhov took a dislike to this story – “rather poor I think” – and refused to include it in his collected works as he was compiling in the final years of his life.
