    About this audiobook

    Anton Chekhov's short story, About Love, is an exploration of the human capacity for love and its implications in an array of social and interpersonal relationships. The narrative follows two protagonists, Vanyushin and Anna Stepanovna, as they traverse a tumultuous journey of love, betrayal and misunderstanding. Through their experiences, the author elucidates how love can often be maligned by feelings of insecurity, loneliness, fear and doubt. Read in English, unabridged.

    Anton Chekhov

    Anton Chekhov was born in 1860 in Southern Russia and moved to Moscow to study medicine. Whilst at university he sold short stories and sketches to magazines to raise money to support his family. His success and acclaim grew as both a writer of fiction and of plays whilst he continued to practice medicine. Ill health forced him to move from his country estate near Moscow to Yalta where he wrote some of his most famous work, and it was there that he married actress Olga Knipper. He died from tuberculosis in 1904.
