«Del amor y otros relatos» is the short story collection by Anton Chekhov, published by Diario El País in paperback (71 pages, in Spanish).
Chekhov moves away from flashy plots and builds his stories from subjective impressions and small everyday gestures, with characters marked by loneliness and inner complexity. This selection, translated by Víctor Gallego Ballestero, addresses love and human relationships in ordinary life.
Volume number 25 of El País's Relatos Breves collection, published in 2007.
Will appeal to readers of short fiction and classic Russian literature.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was a Russian playwright and short story writer. Widely considered one of the greatest writers of all time, his career as a playwright produced four classics, and his best short stories are held in high esteem by writers and critics. Along with Henrik Ibsen and August Strindberg, Chekhov is often referred to as one of the three seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre. Chekhov was a physician by profession. "Medicine is my lawful wife," he once said, "and literature is my mistress."
