About this book
A sexton and his wife in a church hut on a night of thaw and snowstorm open the title story of this Chekhov collection, which gathers fifteen stories, mostly of Russian village life. Savely Gykin lies listening to the wind while Raissa Nilovna sits making sacks. Elsewhere come Gusev, set aboard a ship carrying sick soldiers home from the Far East, The Student, Peasants, and In the Ravine, a story of a village family.
