Selected early short stories 1887 201 Stories by Anton Chekhov About Anton Chekhov: One of Russia's greatest writers, Chekhov began his career writing jokes and anecdotes for popular magazines to support himself while he studied to become a doctor. Between 1888 and his death he single-handedly revolutionized both the drama and the short story. Near the end of his life he married an actress, Olga Knipper. He died from tuberculosis in 1904, age 44. About this project: Constance Garnett translated and published 13 volumes of Chekhov stories in the years 1916-1922. Unfortunately, the order of the stories is almost random, and in the last volume Mrs. Garnett stated: "I regret that it is impossible to obtain the necessary information for a chronological list of all Tchehov's works." This site presents all 201 stories in the order of their publication in Russia. http://www.eldritchpress.org/ac/jr/ "Reading Chekhov was just like the angels singing to me." -- Eudora Welty, 1977 1887 097 - Champagne 098 - Frost 099 - The Beggar 100 - Enemies 101 - Darkness 102 - Polinka 103 - Drunk 104 - An Inadvertence 105 - Verotchka 106 - Shrove Tuesday 107 - A Defenceless Creature 108 - A Bad Business 109 - Home 110 - The Lottery Ticket 111 - Too Early! 112 - Typhus 113 - In Passion Week 114 - A Mystery 115 - The Cossack 116 - The Letter 117 - An Adventure 118 - The Examining Magistrate 119 - Aborigines 120 - Volodya 122 - Bad Weather 123 - A Play 124 - A Transgression 125 - From the Diary of a Violent-Tempered Man 126 - Uprooted 127 - A Father 128 - A Happy Ending 129 - In the Coach-House 130 - Zinotchka 131 - The Doctor 132 - The Pipe 133 - An Avenger 134 - The Post 135 - The Runaway 136 - A Problem 137 - The Old House 138 - The Cattle Dealers 139 - Expensive Lessons 140 - The Lion and the Sun 141 - In Trouble 142 - The Kiss 145 - A Lady's Story
