"Sergey Kapitonlch Akhineyev, the teacher of calligraphy, gave his daughter Natalya in marriage to the teacher of history and geography, Ivan Petrovich Loshadinikh. The wedding feast went on swimmingly. They sang, played, and danced in the parlor. Waiters, hired for the occasion from the club, bustled about hither and thither like madmen, in black frock coats and soiled white neckties. A loud noise of voices smote the air. From the outside people looked in at the windows;--their social standing gave them no right to enter."

Dramas, such as The Seagull (1896, revised 1898), and including "A Dreary Story" (1889) of Russian writer Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, also Chekov, concern the inability of humans to communicate.
Born ( Антон Павлович Чехов ) in the small southern seaport of Taganrog, the son of a grocer. His grandfather, a serf, bought his own freedom and that of his three sons in 1841. He also taught to read. A cloth merchant fathered Yevgenia Morozova, his mother.
"When I think back on my childhood," Chekhov recalled, "it all seems quite gloomy to me." Tyranny of his father, religious fanaticism, and long nights in the store, open from five in the morning till midnight, shadowed his early years. He attended a school for Greek boys in Taganrog from 1867 to 1868 and then Taganrog grammar school. Bankruptcy of his father compelled the family to move to Moscow. At the age of 16 years in 1876, independent Chekhov for some time alone in his native town supported through private tutoring.
In 1879, Chekhov left grammar school and entered the university medical school at Moscow. In the school, he began to publish hundreds of short comics to support his mother, sisters and brothers. Nicholas Leikin published him at this period and owned Oskolki (splinters), the journal of Saint Petersburg. His subjected silly social situations, marital problems, and farcical encounters among husbands, wives, mistresses, and lust; even after his marriage, Chekhov, the shy author, knew not much of whims of young women.
Nenunzhaya pobeda , first novel of Chekhov, set in 1882 in Hungary, parodied the novels of the popular Mór Jókai. People also mocked ideological optimism of Jókai as a politician.
Chekhov graduated in 1884 and practiced medicine. He worked from 1885 in Peterburskaia gazeta.
In 1886, Chekhov met H.S. Suvorin, who invited him, a regular contributor, to work for Novoe vremya, the daily paper of Saint Petersburg. He gained a wide fame before 1886. He authored The Shooting Party , his second full-length novel, later translated into English. Agatha Christie used its characters and atmosphere in later her mystery novel The Murder of Roger Ackroyd . First book of Chekhov in 1886 succeeded, and he gradually committed full time. The refusal of the author to join the ranks of social critics arose the wrath of liberal and radical intelligentsia, who criticized him for dealing with serious social and moral questions but avoiding giving answers. Such leaders as Leo Tolstoy and Nikolai Leskov, however, defended him. "I'm not a liberal, or a conservative, or a gradualist, or a monk, or an indifferentist. I should like to be a free artist and that's all..." Chekhov said in 1888.
The failure of The Wood Demon , play in 1889, and problems with novel made Chekhov to withdraw from literature for a period. In 1890, he traveled across Siberia to Sakhalin, remote prison island. He conducted a detailed census of ten thousand convicts and settlers, condemned to live on that harsh island. Chekhov expected to use the results of his research for his doctoral dissertation. Hard conditions on the island probably also weakened his own physical condition. From this journey came his famous travel book.
Chekhov practiced medicine until 1892. During these years, Chechov developed his concept of the dispassionate, non-judgmental author. He outlined his program in a letter to his brother Aleksandr: "1. Absence of lengthy verbiage of political-social-economic nature; 2. total objectivity; 3. truthful descriptions of persons and objects; 4. extreme brevity; 5. audacity and originality; flee the stereotype; 6. compassion."

اما افسوس! گاهی انسان هرچه تلاش كند بى فايده است. حرف هاى شيطانى كار خودش را كرد.

بهای سنگین و جدی ای که برای سبک ترین و مسخره ترین کارها گاهی میپردازیم ... اتفاقات ساده ای که گاهی پیچیده ترین عواقب رو در پی دارن

فکرکنم فقط چخوف بتونه توی ۷ صفحه، فضاسازی بکنه، شخصیت پردازی کنه و داستان بگه و در آخر نکته و پند مورد نظرش رو هم منتقل کنه.

داستانی کوتاه بود و نثری بسیار ساده و روان داشت، اما همین چند صفحه برای چخوف کافی بود که حرف خودشو بزنه.
گاهی ما انسان ها ترس ها و نگرانی هایی داریم که فقط برای خودمون مهم هستند و افراد دیگر اصلا به آنها توجهی نمی کنند، اما ما با تمام وجود سعی می کنیم که جلوی رخ دادن آن ها را بگیریم یا پنهانشون کنیم. همین "اضافه کاری" های ما بعضی وقت ها باعث میشه که توجه دیگران رو بیشتر به خودمون جلب کنیم و باعث میشه که بدبیاری های بیشتری رو به بار بیاریم، در صورتی که شاید اگر کم تر نگران باشیم و زیاد جدیش نگیریم، اصلا مشکلی ایجاد نکنه.
پ.ن: گاهی ما آدم ها از ترس چیزی که ممکنه برامون اتفاق بیفته کارهایی رو انجام میدیم که همون کار ها باعث میشن ترس هامون به واقعیت تبدیل بشن. پس بهتره انقدر مسائل مختلف رو جدی نگیریم

این خود تویی که با ذهنیاتت و تراوشات ذهنی خودت بزرگ میکنی، بزرگ میکنی، بزرگ میکنی تا اینکه همه متوجه سایههای ساختهی دست تو میشن و خودت هم چه بسا باورشون میکنی!

فکر نمی کردم اینقدر این داستان کوتاه باشد. در درس هایمان خوانده بودیم که گاه در بیماری هایی نظیر آلزایمر تصورات این چنینی برای فرد ایجاد می شود: فلانی دارد می خندد؟ حتماََ دارد به من می خندد. و ...
از طرفی یاد آن افتادم. از طرفی هم یاد گندهایی که خودم گهگاه زده ام افتادم که مثلاََ یک مفهوم را آنقدر بد تعریف کرده ام که همه به من گمان بد برده اند. البته بعدش نرفته ام تک تک با آدم ها حرف بزنم تا درستش کنم! چون درست کردن بعضی چیزها بیشتر خرابش می کند.
