    About this audiobook

    In "In An Hotel" by Anton Chekhov, Madame Nashatyrin, the wife of a colonel, complains to the hotel-keeper about the scandalous behavior of Staff-Captain Kikin, who is staying in the hotel. She is outraged by the vulgarity of Kikin's language and the lewd stories he tells. The hotel-keeper sympathizes with Madame Nashatyrin but explains that Kikin owes him three months of rent and refuses to leave. Despite Kikin's disgraceful behavior, the hotel-keeper admits that he is a handsome, intelligent man when sober. Madame Nashatyrin is surprised to learn that Kikin is not married and begins to mull over this new information. The story ends with Madame Nashatyrin lost in thought as her daughters, Lilya and Mila, continue to sit at the window, blushing at Kikin's scandalous stories. Read in Enlgish, unabridged.

    Author

    Anton Chekhov

    Anton Chekhov was born in Taganrog, in southern Russia, and in his youth paid for his own education and supported his entire family by writing short, satirical sketches of Russian life. Though he eventually became a physician and once considered medicine his principal career, he continued to gain popularity and praise as a writer for various Russian newspapers, eventually authoring more literary work and ultimately his most well-known plays, including Ivanov, The Seagull, and Uncle Vanya. He died of tuberculosis in 1904, and is regarded as one of the best short story writers in history, influencing such authors as Ernest Hemingway, Vladimir Nabokov, and Raymond Carver.
