The Cherry Orchard

The Cherry Orchard

(NOTE: The Book cover may vary if published by different companies.)

Author:  Anton Chekhov

Categories:  Fiction

Pages: 

Publisher: local

Cover: Softcover

Book description :

Published to tie in with the world premiere at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin.

In Chekhov's tragi-comedy - perhaps his most popular play - the Gayev family is torn by powerful forces, forces rooted deep in history, and in the society around them. Their estate is hopelessly in debt: urged to cut down their beautiful cherry orchard and sell the land for holiday cottages, they struggle to act decisively. Tom Murphy's fine vernacular version allows us to re-imagine the events of the play in the last days of Anglo-Irish colonialism. It gives this great play vivid new life within our own history and social consciousness.
