Audiobook: The Peasants by Anton Chekhov | George Guidall | Full | 1897
"Peasants" is an 1897 novella by Anton Chekhov. Upon its publication it became a literary sensation of the year, caused controversy (even the Chekhov admirer Leo Tolstoy labeled it "the crime against the people") but in retrospect is regarded as one of Chekhov's masterpieces.
The novella was first published in the April 1897 issue of Russkaya Mysl. With minor changes and some additions to Chapter IX, it came out as a separate edition, first via Alexey Suvorin Publishing House, then (also the same year) as part of the book called 1. Peasants. 2. My Life. With further minor edits, Chekhov included it into 9 of his Collected Works published by Adolf Marks in 1899-1901.

    the Russian society at the end of the 19century, seem to me to be like prisoners of their surrounding material worries and concerns that occupy their lives day after day. even their human relations seem to me to be like fretting over polishing some oaken piece of furniture. Consumption by material desires.isolating from reality of common and diverse examples society, whirlwinds of intelllectual froth, hothouse flowers of ornate delicate intricate patterns which cannot exist outside the protection of the glass walls.

    Chekhov seems obsessed with gardens. Do gardens exist in all his stories like character? Does President Putin have a garden that he walks in early in the mornings before heading off to the Kremlin?

    This is a brilliant little tale - perfect for when you're feeling blue. Also, I've listened to a lot of audio books and this narrator is probably my favourite. He's easy to listen to at any time of day, suitably grave for these tales. He narrates Crime and Punishment too, which is great if you haven't listened to it. Anyone know of another Chekhov story like this one? Dealing with poverty and peasant life? Or any other author?

    Wow! This is so powerful to me. The Narrator is impeccable! My first time hearing this story, and it reminds me of the rap mogul/billionaire, Kanye West. It is wondered how he doesn’t sleep much, and if any issues of bipolarism as he exceled/excels on excellents. People take him strange, yet he sees himself very different from the herd of standardization. I think he would find himself on the other end of bipolarism, and depresessed as noted here around 1:17:00 if his condition were medically managed. There may consequently be a loss of his talent/ billionaire status. Hallucinations in the setting of sleep deprivation

    So glad to come across this on my Chekhov journey thirsty for it all. Bought A C: A Life by Donald Rayfield (recommended), have his letters, including those to Olga, but what I wanted to say is the narrator makes a difference. Some read too fast, not George. Some over-act voices, not George. Know him from Craig Johnson’s Longmire series where he nails it. And he does this as well. I’ve the Audible complete collection but read so fast it’s like it’s hard to hear. Haha Richard Armitage is to blame for my new interest in Anton with a ‘free to members’ bit of about 6 stories, and while George is great, Richard, a professional actor, and British, adds a flair that brings his words, literally, to life. Recommend that as well. What strikes me with this, is the selection closer to his passing because with time running out he didn’t mince words writing with a clarity and succinctness that’s simply brilliant. Love this man, Anton. Just adore him, totally. Listen/read Rayfield and you will not be disappointed. His life is in these stories. He wrote what he knew. And he knew a lot. Friends with all, repeat, all walks of life but nobility and politicians. That just makes me adore him more.

    Chekhov the master narrator blends his literary abilities with the diagnostic skills-which he acquired from his training and education as a physician- in this story of incredible depth and indescribable pathos. Chekhov used to say:" the profession of medicine is my wife and literature, my mistress". In this story, at last,both his wife and mistress meet and become one and the same. Thanks.
