Drama in the Hunt

In the collection of works by A. P. Chekhov, united by the theme of crimes, there are his short stories and novellas from different years, as well as the novel "Drama in the Hunt" (which inspired the film "My Tender and Soft Beast"). Some of Chekhov's characters are driven to a life of crime by poverty, while others are motivated by love. Embezzlement of public funds, murder, robberies, fraud— the accused stand trial for various crimes. Some of them are devastated and indifferent to their fate, some experience fear of the future, while others feel no guilt. Chekhov's artistic palette is so rich that each story is painted with its own colors.
