Anton Chekhov, perhaps better known as a world famous classical playwright for works such as "Uncle Vanya" and "The Cherry Orchard" was also a prolific short story writer. "The Schoolmaster and Other Stories" is one of several of his collections. It's a compilation of 30 short stories. Some bizarre, some comical but all very interesting. (Summary by William Tomcho) (6 hr 14 min)

Most are very small bits of human behavior often very foolish ones. This . The first volume of stories seemed more significant to me, but this certainly added to my interest in the author, whom I hadn't read before. Reader was satisfactory and I thank him.

Unique stories


(5 stars)

Well read, thank you. This collection has led me to download other stories but Anton Checkov. Unique studies of short interactions of human life & the ironic twists & pain of being human.

I loved it, except why do the short stories stop? I have to open the app up again. Otherwise love it.

Entertaining


(5 stars)

Great stories illuminating human foibles. Plenty of irony and dry humour. Read clearly in just the right tone.
