As a result of his widespread popularity, Chekhov amassed a vast collection of short stories displaying an early use of stream-of-consciousness writing, as well as his powerful ideas concerning the individual, the tedium of life, and the beauty nature and humanity. This edition contains many stories, including ''Enemies,'' ''In the Dark,'' ''A Mystery,'' ''Joy,'' ''A Peculiar Man,'' ''The Album,'' ''Overdoing It,'' ''In the Graveyard,'' and ''In a Strange Land.''
