Crafting Ethnography in the Company of Chekhov

Beschreibung

This title introduces readers to some other sides of Chekhov: his pithy, witty observations on the writing process; his life as a writer through accounts by his friends, family, and lovers; and his venture into nonfiction through his book "Sakhalin Island".
