What reading level is Anton Tchekhov And Other Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
True, at this moment he dies ; but the idea is triumphant, still. The critics could con- sider themselves quite satisfied. Tchekhov had openly repented and renounced the theory of non-resistance ; and, I believe, Ward No. 6 met with a sympathetic reception at the time. In passing I would say that the doctor dies very beautifully : in his last moments he sees a herd of deer. . . . Indeed, the construction of this story leaves no doubt in the mind. Tchekhov wished to compromise, and he compromise...d. He had come to feel how intolerable was hopelessness, how impossible the creation from a void. To beat one's head against the stones, eternally to beat one's head against the stones, is so horrible that it were better to return to idealism. Then the truth of the wonderful Russian saying was proved : ' Don't forswear the beggar's wallet nor the prison. ' Tchekhov joined the choir of Russian writers, and began to praise the idea. But not for long. His very next story, The Duel, has a different character.
