    About this audiobook

    The story “After the Theatre” tells us about a sixteen years old girl Nadya Zelenina. She was loved by two men: a successful officer called Gorny and a student called Gruzdev. She decided to write a letter like Tatyana's from "Yevgeny Onegin”. After the opera she wanted to be doubtful of their love. To be unloved and unhappy -- how interesting that was. She found herself very happy just thinking about these two men making love with her. But she couldn’t decide whom she liked more. Read “After the Theatre” by Chekhov to know what was in the letter and how easy the happiness is.

    Author

    Anton Chekhov

    Anton Chekhov was born in 1860 in Southern Russia and moved to Moscow to study medicine. Whilst at university he sold short stories and sketches to magazines to raise money to support his family. His success and acclaim grew as both a writer of fiction and of plays whilst he continued to practice medicine. Ill health forced him to move from his country estate near Moscow to Yalta where he wrote some of his most famous work, and it was there that he married actress Olga Knipper. He died from tuberculosis in 1904.
