I shall keep checking on La Pianiste. Regarding Chekhov - I would definitely recommend some short stories first.But I have no idea whether a foreigner can get the tru flavor of his writing, as it is incredibly tied to the Russian realities.
Follow Ups:
That is what I thought.
I start with short storys.the first one was " le Duel" I found it very cold,very intelectual,with a these an antithese and an synthese,very coldly writen revealing the first sign of the Stalinism ( remember the jewish character HE is the faschist )
I found the Russian soul ( Or what IThink it is) present,the being torn apart...but could not identify with them as I can with Flaubert,maupassant....I could connect with Tolstoi..
And I read " My Life " witch in my eyes is not a story with a logical flowing story... cold very cold..bitter more of an moralist with a big envy for justice and showing the limitation of the bourgoisie...
Too much of politic ..too less of an enjoyable story.
Till now.
I will pursuit.
