Chekhov: The Hidden Ground
ISBN: 9781566631877 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 443 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Philip Callow s new biography of Russia s greatest dramatist and storyteller is a major achievement. By examining Chekhov s life within the context of the evolution of his art, Mr. Callow makes the reader acutely aware of the hidden ground from which Chekhov s work sprang and on which his divided life stood. Arthur Miller calls Chekhov in nearly every way our contemporary. His irony is as modern as Beckett s; as a letter writer he is as natural and irresistible as D. H. Lawrence.

In rich and intimate detail, Mr. Callow recreates the half-rural, half-industrial world of the English Midlands where Lawrence grew up and which haunted his imagination all his life; he traces Lawrence's relationships with women, particularly his dominating mother, his first love Jessie Chambers, and earthy...
