Kashtanka

The unsurpassed talent of the classic Russian prose Anton Pavlovich Chekhov and the magnificent technique of the book illustrator Natalia Demidova were skillfully combined in this edition. Expressive images created by the artist, accurately convey the mood and essence of the work, forcing the reader to smile through tears of sadness, to experience feelings of compassion, pity and even a deep shock. Illustrations seem to let you hear a quiet, but penetrating into the very soul of the voice of a genius writer.
