This collection presents the best works of A.P. Chekhov on a spiritual theme: about the search for faith, about the purpose of man, about the life and death of the soul, about the choice between material and spiritual values. Despite the fact that researchers of the writer’s work still cannot come to a consensus and decide whether the Chekhov was a believer, he himself answers this question with his works, which are full of compassionate love for weak and sinful human souls. With the mouth of one of their characters, Chekhov so determines the meaning of creativity: “Science and art, when they are real … are looking for truth, the meaning of life, seek God, soul.”
