«Дама с собачкой и другие рассказы 1896–1904» — это очаровательный сборник сказок, показывающий Антона Чехова на пике его писательского творчества. Это издание Penguin Classics переведено Рональдом Уилксом с предисловием Пола Дебрецени • В последние годы своей жизни Чехов написал несколько рассказов, которые вошли в число его шедевров и вошли в число самых уважаемых произведений русской литературы. Пронзительные «Дама с собачкой» и «О любви» исследуют природу любви вне брака – ее романтический идеализм и страх разочарования. А в таких рассказах, как «Крестьяне», «Дом с мезонином» и «Моя жизнь», Чехов рисует яркую картину положения бедняков и их бессилия перед эксплуатацией и лишениями. Собрав здесь произведения, Чехов отошел от реализма своих ранних рассказов, расширив диапазон персонажей и сюжетов, одновременно выработав сдержанный минималистический стиль, который вдохновил таких современных авторов рассказов, как Эрнеста Хемингуэя и Уильяма Фолкнера

When the Americans Mr and Mrs Otis and their four children move into Canterville Chase, its previous occupant Lord Canterville warns them that the ghost of his ancestor still haunts the house. Their disbelief is soon shattered by the nightly sound of rattling chains in the hallways and the appearance of mysterious bloodstains in the living room. However, the ghost struggles to intimidate his new victims, as they counter his ghoulish behaviour with typically transatlantic pragmatism, offering lubricator for his chains and cleaning up the stains with detergent. As the spirit is deserted by his capacity to scare, Virginia, the Otises’ daughter, gets to know him and learns the tragic tale behind his sad fate • Sparkling with his trademark wit, this classic tale is one of Oscar Wilde’s finest stories and is presented here with three other comic mystery stories, ‘Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime’, ‘The Sphinx without a Secret’ and ‘The Model Millionaire’, all of which were first published together in 1891
