The puppy dog lady and other stories.

Book Review by: Kay Barone     

Original Author: Anton Chejov
This abstract was translated from La dama del perrito y otros cuentos
Masterfully written, this story of Chejov skillfully illustrates the elegance of an author that knows how to welcome a reader
with this thoughts and hte histories of real or imaginary people. In this story a chance encounter between two lonely people leads them to a romantic relationship that allows them to enoy the love affair and to live through a youthful passion although they don't have the maturity and age where such desires would flourish. The stories of Chejov have the peculiarity of bringing us to a world where the author portrays the beauty of his words poetically and paints the essence of the story with strength and emotion. The elegance seen in the sentences converts them into magic. Chejov, wise to the essence of Russia, presents his soul in the stories that become to the reader his own form of being.
