About this audiobook
The Helpmate by Anton Chekhov is an intriguing exploration of the complexities of interpersonal relationships. Through its use of symbolic imagery, Chekhov creates a narrative that examines the idea of reliance and codependence among those in a marriage. The protagonist, Nikolay, struggles to navigate his own feelings on the subject while simultaneously confronting his wife's discontentment with their status quo. Read in English, unabridged.
Author
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.
