Ivanoff is a play written by the renowned Russian author Anton Chekhov. The story revolves around the life of a man named Ivanoff, who is struggling with depression and a sense of purposelessness. He is married to Anna, a woman who is deeply in love with him, but Ivanoff is unable to reciprocate her feelings. Instead, he finds himself drawn to Sasha, the daughter of a wealthy landowner, who is engaged to another man.As the play progresses, Ivanoff's mental state deteriorates, and he becomes increasingly isolated from those around him. He is haunted by his past mistakes and regrets, and he is unable to find a way out of his despair. Meanwhile, Anna is left to deal with the fallout of Ivanoff's actions, and she is forced to confront some difficult truths about their relationship.Throughout the play, Chekhov explores themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in life. He paints a vivid portrait of a man struggling to come to terms with his own mortality and the choices he has made in life. Ivanoff is a powerful and moving work of literature that continues to resonate with readers today.IVANOFF. I suppose I am. As an onlooker, of course you see me more clearly than I see myself, and your judgment of me is probably right. No doubt I am terribly guilty. [Listens] I think I hear the carriage coming. I must get ready to go. [He goes toward the house and then stops] You dislike me, doctor, and you don't conceal it. Your sincerity does you credit. [He goes into the house.]This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
