SUMMARY:Anton Chekhov - Three Years
DESCRIPTION:Cribbing Wikipedia, shamelessly: "Three Years (Russian: Три года, translit. Tri goda) is an 1895 novella by Anton Chekhov originally published in the January and February 1895 issues of Russkaya Mysl. At 130 pages it is Chekhov's second-longest narrative. The story takes a negative position on the progress of society, featuring individuals of the merchant and factory owner class and their workers, without offering political solutions" From Amazon: "Three Years recounts a complex series of ironies in the personal life of a rich but passive Moscow merchant." From Walter Horace Bruford Chekhov and His Russia: A Sociological Study "Chekhov's Three years (1895) is a small-scale Buddenbrooks, written six years before Thomas Mann's masterpiece, and eleven years before the first part of the Forsyte Saga. In his epigrammatic way, the author gives us in 130 pages, and the story of just three years, the same feeling for the inevitable differentiation of successive generations which Mann and Galsworthy elaborate at much greater length."

How to find us: Almost certainly in the second floor meeting room, just by the stairs.
