Anton Chekhov Ward Number Six and Other Stories Издательство: Oxford University Press Жанр: Oxford University Press Качество: Хорошее Страниц: 272 Формат: pdf, fb2, epub Writing towards the close of the nineteenth century, Chekhov — himself a country doctor — recorded in his fiction the symptoms of a diseased society.
