Description

Chekhov's widely performed classic study of provincial life explores the irony of hope and the inadequacy of consolation.Michael Frayn's hugely popular translation is an AQA recommended text. For this Student Edition Nick Worrall provides expert commentary and notes.

A year after the death of their father, sisters Olga, Masha and Irina long to escape the tedium of their provincial Russian town. They place their hopes in moving to Moscow, but this relies on not only their brother Andrey's academic career but also the ability of happiness to overcome stagnation and distant dreams.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
