By Anton Chekhov & Kevin Theis
The Three Sisters by Anton Chekhov - Unabridged by Anton Chekhov & Kevin Theis digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

"The Three Sisters" is one of Russian writer Anton Chekhov's most celebrated dramas and is considered by literary critics as one of the finest plays ever written.  

First produced by the Moscow Arts Theatre in 1901 under the stewardship of legendary Russian director Konstantin Stanislavski, "The Three Sisters" revolves around the lives of the Prozorov family, sisters Olga, Masha and Irina and their brother Andrey. All four siblings feel mired, living in a boring, provincial town with nothing to do and they all pine for their younger days when they were living exciting lives in Moscow.  

Hailed as one of the greatest dramatic works of the period when it first premiered, "The Three Sisters" is numbered among Chekhov's four outstanding works for the theatre, which also includes "The Sea Gull," "Uncle Vanya" and "The Cherry Orchard."

About Anton Chekhov

Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) was a Russian playwright and short story writer whose modernistic approach to both mediums has made him one of the most revered authors of all time. After surviving a poor and abusive childhood, Chekhov was forced to find his own way in the world and take care of his family. He began writing short, humorous stories to supplement his income and soon became a widely praised and popular short story writer. Shortly before he began writing plays, Chekhov learned he had tuberculosis, which would ultimately claim his life, but not before he produced four of the greatest works of the Russian theatre: The Seagull (1895), Uncle Vanya (1897), The Three Sisters (1900) and The Cherry Orchard (1903). Chekhov's modernistic approach to theatre - in which he explored a new concept that became known as "realism" - attracted the attention of the great actor and director Konstantin Stanislavsky who proceeded to produce his works at the renowned Moscow Art Theatre and cemented Chekhov as the premiere dramatist of his day. Chekhov ultimately succumbed to tuberculosis in 1904 but his literary reputation lives on. His plays have been translated into dozens of languages and have been performed around the world for over a century. Anton Chekhov is regularly cited by literary critics as not only one of the finest writers in Russia, but among the most revered and celebrated authors of all time.
