Christof Schwärzler’s Reviews > The Chekhov Collection of Short Stories > Status Update

"First impressions: refreshingly straightforward after Dostoevsky. Nothing superfluous, straight to the point, but never boring. The chapters are sometimes extremely short which feels almost abrupt at first but is apparently very deliberately Chekhov. Armitage's narration is excellent. Minor mumbling here and there but nothing that ruins the experience. Starting with Ward No. 6.
