The Seagull (Methuen Student Editions) (Student Editions) |
|
 | I've read several versions of Chekhov's masterpiece "The Seagull", and Frayn's version is by far the best. Despite not having read it in it's original language, this version has layers of subtext with pure realism that would have made him proud. It's also one of the few versions that makes sense of the names (many versions have a variety of names) which makes it easier to understand for someone who has not studied his works.
This version (Methuen Student Edition) is accompanied by an interesting, if slightly short, introduction by the translator, and has a useful glossary and history of Chekhov's life. Definitely a good version to buy, especially for someone reading it for the first time.
