About this book

Chekhov's four-act play Ivanoff, dated 1889, is set in the provinces of central Russia. Nicholas Ivanoff, an estate owner and member of the Council of Peasant Affairs, shares the stage with his wife Anna, born Sarah Abramson, his uncle Count Shabelski, the neighbours Lebedieff and his wife Zinaida, their daughter Sasha, a young government doctor named Lvoff, and the widow Martha Babakina.

Act I begins on an evening in the garden of Ivanoff's country place, where his estate manager Borkin arrives with a gun and asks him for money.
