For “The Story of an Unknown Man” Chekhov does away with all the grand expansiveness of the first to stories in this collection and makes it all mostly set in just a couple apartments. This lets the grandness of the narrator rest with the narrators internal feelings, which are repressed and hidden until suddenly exploding out in a scene when he finally leaves the apartments and the snow mirrors his turmoil
