Chekhov Restored
Overview
For the first time in English, this edition seamlessly restores around 800 of the 2,000 lines excised from Anton Chekhov's plays directly into the text, rather than relegating them to footnotes or appendices. These lines were removed by censors, magazine editors, and theatre practitioners of Chekhov's own era. At the time there was a rationale for such cuts; today, however, they seem unnecessary, irrelevant, and at times even baffling.
