The Cherry Orchard (1903) is the final play by the Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. It is considered as one of four outstanding plays by Chekhov, along with The Seagull, Three Sisters, and Uncle Vanya. The narrative recounts an aristocratic landowner who returns to her family estate just before it is auctioned to pay the mortgage. It dramatizes the socio-economic developments in Russia at the turn of the 20th century, including the rise of the middle class after the abolition of serfdom and the waning power of the aristocracy.

One great example of Chekhov's minimalism is found in The Beauties, a very short "story" - I use the term loosely, because it is really just two snapshots, two unrelated anecdotes in which a man describes seeing true beauty in two different women. These women are imperfect, yet enigmatically alluring. Chekhov's genius lies in the way he manages to convey with such apparent effortlessness a profound sense of the mystery of beauty, and of the sadness of those who observe and think.

Dear Permission to be Powerful Reader,Boundaries by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend changed my life. It’s not just about saying “no”—it’s about owning your life. Boundaries are the invisible force fields that define who we are, what we allow, and refuse to tolerate. They determine our relationships, our self-worth, and ultimately, our destiny. Yet, many of us were never taught how to set them. Instead, we were conditioned to believe that being “good” means being endlessly available. That saying “yes” when we want to say “no” makes us kind, loyal, and loving. ...

Auf der Erde schreibt man das Jahr 1551 Neuer Galaktischer Zeitrechnung, gut dreitausend Jahre vom 21. Jahrhundert alter Zeitrechnung entfernt. Nach großen Umwälzungen in der Milchstraße haben sich die Verhältnisse zwischen den unterschiedlichen Sternenreichen beruhigt; im Großen und Ganzen herrscht Frieden. Vor allem die von Menschen bewohnten Planeten und Monde streben eine positive Zukunft an. Tausende von Welten haben sich zur Liga Freier Galaktiker zusammengeschlossen, in der auch Wesen mitwirken, die man in früheren Jahren als "nichtmenschlich" bezeichnet hätte.

El primer libro autobiográfico de Chris Stewart, Entre limones, es el divertidísimo relato de un joven inglés que, con tal de no vestir traje y trabajar en una oficina, se gastó todos sus ahorros en la compra de un ruinoso cortijo en la Alpujarra granadina. Publicado en 1999 por una pequeña editorial inglesa, se convirtió en un fenómeno editorial, hasta el punto de que, junto con los dos volúmenes siguientes -El loro en el limonero y Los almendros en flor-, han deleitado a más de dos millones de lectores.

Three friends, Mayer (a medical student), Rybnikov (a student of the arts), and Vassilyev (a law student), decide to go out one night to get some girls. Mayer and Rybnikov had to spend some time convincing Vassilyev to come along, as he was far more fastidious and cautious than his friends. Vassilyev himself is envious of his friends, who live their lives in a much more carefree fashion.

Vielen eher als Dramatiker bekannt, war Anton Tschechow auch ein eifriger Novellist und Verfasser von unzähligen Kurzgeschichten. In den vorliegenden 57 Erzählungen überwiegen jene aus seiner frühen Schaffensphase: scherzhafte Miniaturen, Parodien und komische Kurzgeschichten, in denen sich der Autor stilistisch austobte. Doch auch viele bekannte Erzählungen aus Tschechows späterem Schaffen - dann mehr dem Realismus zugehörig - bringt Hans-Helmut Dickow eindrucksvoll zu Gehör.

The only full-length novel which Chekhov authored, The Shooting Party revolves around Olga, the pretty young daughter of a drunken worker on a country estate, and her relationships with the men in her life. Loved by Urbenin, whom she eventually marries; desired by the Count Karneyev; and adored by Zinovyev, who knows the sadness at the heart of her marriage, a murderous attack begins a spiral of alarm, mistrust, and deceit.

What if your deepest wound wasn’t that they took too much... But that you kept giving? In this raw, unfiltered dispatch from the heart, Anton Volney pulls back the curtain on a lifelong habit that nearly destroyed him—pathological over-giving. Trained from childhood to win love by being useful, he found himself in a pattern of one-sided relationships, emotional exhaustion, and invisible self-abandonment. But then something snapped. This isn’t a book about being “nice.” It’s about waking up. About seeing the invisible contracts you never agreed to. And about reclaiming the power ...
