No longer in love with his wife, riddled with debt, and in danger of losing his estate, Ivanov finds himself trapped in a stasis he cannot shake--dragging all of those in his orbit down with him. While his family and friends rally around him trying to help, Ivanov only seems to sink further into the darkness that threatens to consume him. A new translation of Chekhov's character study of a man undone by his own spiritual malaise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Nelson's \u003c\/strong\u003emany plays include \u003cem\u003eIllyria\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eThe Gabriels: Election Year in the Life of One Family \u003c\/em\u003e(\u003cem\u003eHungry\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eWhat Did You Expect?\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eWomen of a Certain Age\u003c\/em\u003e); \u003cem\u003eThe Apple Family: Scenes from Life in the Country \u003c\/em\u003e(\u003cem\u003eThat Hopey Changey Thing\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSweet and Sad\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSorry, Regular Singing\u003c\/em\u003e); \u003cem\u003eNikolai and the Others\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eGoodnight Children Everywhere \u003c\/em\u003e(Olivier Award for Best Play); \u003cem\u003eFranny's Way\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eSome Americans Abroad\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eFrank's Home\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eTwo Shakespearean Actors\u003c\/em\u003e; and \u003cem\u003eJames Joyce's The Dead \u003c\/em\u003e(with Shaun Davey; Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Pevear \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003cstrong\u003eLarissa Volokhonsky \u003c\/strong\u003ehave translated the works of Leo Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Nikolai Gogol, Anton Chekhov, Boris Pasternak, and Mikhail Bulgakov.
