About this audiobook
The Helpmate by Anton Chekhov is an intriguing exploration of the complexities of interpersonal relationships. Through its use of symbolic imagery, Chekhov creates a narrative that examines the idea of reliance and codependence among those in a marriage. The protagonist, Nikolay, struggles to navigate his own feelings on the subject while simultaneously confronting his wife's discontentment with their status quo. Read in English, unabridged.
Anton Chekhov
Anton Chekhov was born in Taganrog, in southern Russia, and in his youth paid for his own education and supported his entire family by writing short, satirical sketches of Russian life. Though he eventually became a physician and once considered medicine his principal career, he continued to gain popularity and praise as a writer for various Russian newspapers, eventually authoring more literary work and ultimately his most well-known plays, including Ivanov, The Seagull, and Uncle Vanya. He died of tuberculosis in 1904, and is regarded as one of the best short story writers in history, influencing such authors as Ernest Hemingway, Vladimir Nabokov, and Raymond Carver.
