The Cherry Orchard

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of a changing Russia, this final play by Anton Chekhov explores themes of loss, nostalgia, and the passage of time through the story of Madame Ranevskaya and her family as they face the sale of their beloved cherry orchard. With its rich character development, particularly the uninspired Leonid Gayev, the play captures the complexities of human emotion and societal shifts. First performed in 1904, it remains a pivotal work in modern theater, celebrated for its depth and insight into the human condition.
