| Description | "Sensational news!" newspaper reports declared about A.P. Chekhov's journey to Sakhalin in 1890: the famous young writer, unexpected even by his own family, had set off for the remote penal island. The journey lasted eight months, covering many thousands of miles by rail, steamship, horse, and boat, nearly dying several times. But, contrary to readers' expectations, Chekhov brought back from Sakhalin not a novel, but a book, "Sakhalin Island." This book is both a travelogue and a comprehensive exploration of the island's unique history and the fates of its inhabitants — the native population and the exiled convicts.
In addition to "Sakhalin Island," this edition includes the essays "From Siberia," stories written based on impressions from the journey, and selected letters Chekhov sent to family and friends along the way. |
