Overview
Una biografía que ilumina la figura de Antón Chéjov en toda su verdad, humanidad y sensibilidad excepcional.
La nostalgia de la inocencia, el retrato sin concesiones de una humanidad que sufre: numerosas son las afinidades que unen la obra de Irène Némirovsky con la de Antón Chéjov. Nacida en 1903, un año antes de la muerte de este, la autora de Suite francesa quedó prendada por la trayectoria y el destino del célebre escritor ruso. Precisa, íntima y profundamente conmovedora, esta biografía, que es también una magnífica panorámica de la literatura rusa, revela la compleja personalidad de Chéjov, con todos sus padecimientos, anhelos, frustraciones y esperanzas.
Publicada en 1946, cuatro años después de la trágica desaparición de Irène Némirovsky, Vida de Chéjov evoca las extraordinarias coincidencias entre dos almas sorprendentemente afines.
