Gooseberries

by Anton Chekhov
Gooseberries - Thryft
Gooseberries - Thryft

Snapshot of love and loss in 19th century Russia.

'Gooseberries' presents a poignant portrayal of the human desire for happiness and fulfillment. The other two stories in the book, 'The Kiss' and 'The Two Volodyas', are also acclaimed for their exploration of the complex emotions involved in romantic relationships. This book would be a great read for anyone interested in exploring the depths of human emotions and relationships.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
