This month, instead of a novel, we'll be a chatting about a short story! Anton Chekhov's "The Lady with the Dog."
First published in 1899, "The Lady with the Dog" describes an adulterous affair between an unhappily married Moscow banker and a young married woman that begins while both are vacationing alone in Yalta. It is one of Chekhov's most famous pieces of short fiction, and is considered it to be among the greatest short stories ever written. After the discussion, we'll chat about which short stories you love and share recommendations!
This in-person meeting at the Marcy library (617 Dekalb Ave) requires registration.
