Anton Pavlovich Chekhov 
The Lady with the Dog [EPUB ebook] 
and Other Stories

In the final years of his prominent life, Chekhov moved away from the realism of his earlier tales, and developed a broader range of characters and subject matter, while forging the spare minimalist style that would inspire modern short-story writers such as Hemingway and Faulkner. The stories in this volume are indicative of this remarkable shift.
