    Anton Chekhov

    Anton Chekhov was born in 1860 in Southern Russia and moved to Moscow to study medicine. Whilst at university he sold short stories and sketches to magazines to raise money to support his family. His success and acclaim grew as both a writer of fiction and of plays whilst he continued to practice medicine. Ill health forced him to move from his country estate near Moscow to Yalta where he wrote some of his most famous work, and it was there that he married actress Olga Knipper. He died from tuberculosis in 1904.

      The Lady with the Dog - Anton Chekhov

      Garnett

      I

      I

      IT was said that a new person had appeared on the sea-front: a lady with a little dog.

      Говорили, что на набережной появилось новое лицо: дама с собачкой.

      Dmitri Dmitritch Gurov, who had by then been a fortnight at Yalta, and so was fairly at home there, had begun to take an interest in new arrivals.

      Дмитрий Дмитрич Гуров, проживший в Ялте уже две недели и привыкший тут, тоже стал интересоваться новыми лицами.

      Sitting in Verney's pavilion, he saw, walking on the sea-front, a fair-haired young lady of medium height, wearing a beret; a white Pomeranian dog was running behind her.

      Сидя в павильоне у Верне, он видел, как по набережной прошла молодая дама, невысокого роста блондинка, в берете: за нею бежал белый шпиц.

      And afterwards he met her in the public gardens and in the square several times a day.

      И потом он встречал ее в городском саду и на сквере по нескольку раз в день.

      She was walking alone, always wearing the same beret, and always with the same white dog; no one knew who she was, and every one called her simply the lady with the dog.

      Она гуляла одна, всё в том же берете, с белым шпицем; никто не знал, кто она, и называли ее просто так: дама с собачкой.

      If she is here alone without a husband or friends, it wouldn't be amiss to make her acquaintance, Gurov reflected.

      «Если она здесь без мужа и без знакомых, — соображал Гуров, — то было бы не лишнее познакомиться с ней».

      He was under forty, but he had a daughter already twelve years old, and two sons at school.

      Ему не было еще сорока, но у него была уже дочь двенадцати лет и два сына-гимназиста.

      He had been married young, when he was a student in his second year, and by now his wife seemed half as old again as he.

      Его женили рано, когда он был еще студентом второго курса, и теперь жена казалась в полтора раза старше его.

      She was a tall, erect woman with dark eyebrows, staid and dignified, and, as she said of herself, intellectual.

      Это была женщина высокая, с темными бровями, прямая, важная, солидная и, как она сама себя называла, мыслящая.

      She read a great deal, used phonetic spelling, called her husband, not Dmitri, but Dimitri, and he secretly considered her unintelligent, narrow, inelegant, was afraid of her, and did not like to be at home.

      Она много читала, не писала в письмах ъ, называла мужа не Дмитрием, а Димитрием, а он втайне считал ее недалекой, узкой, неизящной, боялся ее и не любил бывать дома.

      He had begun being unfaithful to her long ago--had been unfaithful to her often, and, probably on that account, almost always spoke ill of women, and when they were talked about in his presence, used to call them the lower race.

      Изменять ей он начал уже давно, изменял часто и, вероятно, поэтому о женщинах отзывался почти всегда дурно, и когда в его присутствии говорили о них, то он называл их так: — Низшая раса!

      It seemed to him that he had been so schooled by bitter experience that he might call them what he liked, and yet he could not get on for two days together without the lower race.

      Ему казалось, что он достаточно научен горьким опытом, чтобы называть их как угодно, но всё же без «низшей расы» он не мог бы прожить и двух дней.

      In the society of men he was bored and not himself, with them he was cold and uncommunicative; but when
