The Cherry Orchard

Two plays by A. P. Chekhov — "The Cherry Orchard" (1904) and "Uncle Vanya" (1897) — under one cover.
The innovator of theater, Chekhov himself classified his plays, rather tragic, as belonging to the genre of comedy — which still causes debates among literary scholars and critics to this day. By leading the plot of dramatic works into subtext, Chekhov directs the full power of his impressionistic method towards the description of real life in its sad and amusing manifestations, which continuously follow one another: moments of solitude and love, festive and monetary concerns.
