Adventures in Reading Something I Kept Putting Off

I might just make a series out of this, because there are A LOT of books/plays/etc that I have always meant to read. (Story of a reader's life, right?) We'll see.

Anyway, after much deliberating, I finally started trying to tackle Chekhov. (Calm down, Star Trek fans, I'm talking about Anton Chekhov. No nuclear wessels here.) And got bogged down in "Platonov" immediately.

( I forgot I'm not too good at reading plays. )
