The complete plays
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, Laurence Senelick (Translator, Editor, Annotator)
"This new translation presents the only truly complete edition of the plays of one of the greatest dramatists in history. This volume contains works that have never previously been translated, including the newly discovered farce The Power of Hypnotism and the first version of Ivanov, as well as Chekhov's early humorous dialogues. It also contains a description of lost plays and those Chekhov intended to write but never did." -- Publisher's Description
