Penal servitude through an eyewitness and its ruinous effect on people and landscape
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov — Russian writer, novelist, playwright. A classic of world literature. A doctor by profession. Honorary academician of the Imperial Academy of Sciences in the category of fine literature. One of the most famous playwrights in the world. His works have been translated into more than 100 languages.
"Sakhalin island," published in 1895, was immediately called talented and a capital book; it is an eyewitness account, not only of hard labor, shackles, solitary confinement, shoots, whips and gallows, is, most importantly, look thinking man's hard labor as a whole: it distorts the person it strikes, like a pestilence, of prisoners and of jailers, and the population living near the prison, and even the very terrain where is the prison... Sakhalin existed before Chekhov was discovered - from a geographical point of view - someone else; but today, when it comes to Sakhalin, it seems to us that it was opened by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov.
