Crestwood, New York. Published in 1894 in Russian, it is one of Chekhov’s best stories, showing his mastery in evoking an atmosphere and subtly conveying changes of mood.

Same old. Same old. A well-off man twice the age of a pretty blonde young woman, fancies her and playing on her loneliness as she is far from home without any companion but her dog, he becomes her friend until he can get her into bed. Both of them are married.
She worries that he doesn't respect her. She's right, he doesn't. He doesn't respect women at all but the company of men bores him. She lies to her husband so she can travel to meet him. He probably gives some excuse or other to his wife a...more

'Experience often repeated, truly bitter experience, had taught him long ago that—every intimacy, which at first so agreeably diversifies life and appears a light and charming adventure, inevitably grows into a regular problem of extreme intricacy, and in the long run the situation becomes unbearable. But at every fresh meeting with an interesting woman this experience seemed to slip out of his memory, and he was eager for life, and everything seemed simple and amusing.'

My goodness, this was a crisp short story! More than that, for the type of character the man was, I thought I would love to hate him, being a philanderer and a generally nasty sort when it comes to women... what we have here is one of the best-written examples of Redemption Through Love.
You know the story. It's EVERYWHERE in the romance market. But this short story is probably the crispest and crispiest I've ever read... by an undisputed master of the form. :)
Well worth reading. :)

Such a beautiful, sensitively-written story. It touches my heart.

I would have to agree with Nabokov in that this is one of the greatest short stories ever written. The Lady With the Dog breaks all the rules of short story form, but breaks them wonderfully. There is no plot in this story, is there? No resolution at the end. A simple narrative of two characters falling in love despite the best of their efforts. In many ways, The Lady with the Dog feels like a novel. The principal characters are as beautifully complex as the most successfully portrayed protagon...more

Well, I decided to read this after seeing 'The Reader' - and now I can say I've read Chekhov....

With Chekhov forget about the complex plots and the outward excitement and CONCENTRATE on the apparent trivialities of the daily life of ordinary Russian people, just like you and me.
Probing below the surface, Chekhov lays bare the character's inner structure and their secret motives. Fair enough that he compensates the lack of action with an internal drama!
The story overshadows an adulterous affair between Dmitri Gurov (a creature of contradictions) An attractive man, near forty from the upper...more

I'm not a huge fan of short stories, especially short classic stories about selfish pricks. Gurov is a nearly forty something year old man with children and an apparently bad marriage with a woman he can't stand. But on a two week vacation of some kind he meets 'The Lady with the Dog' and become acquainted with her resulting in an affair that seems only for his entertainment because of how bored he is of his life. I couldn't believe how completely selfish and greedy this guy was, it was sickenin...more

The Lady with the Little Dog & Other Stories is the most known work of Anton Chekhov when it comes to tales and short novels (The Cherry Orchad is his most known piece among the Plays), worldwide. Nevertheless, there are few people who would recognise the beggining of this masterpiece simply because it has been transla
