Ionych

“Ionych” is a famous short story by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, narrating the gradual spiritual degradation of the zemstvo doctor Dmitry Ionych Startsev. The work shows how, under the influence of provincial life and philistine surroundings, a talented and hopeful young doctor turns into an indifferent man greedy for money. The adapted text of the story retains the main idea and plot of the original work, but is presented in a more accessible form for readers.
