WARD NO.6, A SHORT STORY BY ANTON CHEKHOV (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)
Today I'll share a review for Ward No. 6 ( Палата № 6) a short story by Anton Chekhov. First published in 1892, this story is still relevant. It criticizes society (especially its treatment of mentally ill) through observing one doctor's existential crisis. While telling a story of one doctor's burnout, Ward No.6 opens many interesting questions about human suffering and the meaning of life. While I was in Split, I stumbled across an Italian edition of this story in a that antique/second hand bookshop I told you about, so I bought it. Short stories are a great choice whenever you're pressed for time. I have already read this story in Croatian a couple of times. Possibly I had also listened to some of the Russian audio-versions on YouTube at some point, but I'm not certain. I'm actually listening to the above mentioned and linked audiobook while I'm putting this post together, just to refresh my memory. You can read this short story in English for free on...

Hello Ivana,
ReplyDeletelooks like a simple post, but this is great stuff! These are litte nice pics!!!
On the last pic, i can see that you wearing Heels for your daily shopping. I love that, cause this style shows always elegance. I know some friends of mine named this "Girlie-Stuff" and cant understand, why i put heels on, when i go shopping. I say then "...this is my style of feminity". And the next thing is: i LOVE wearing Heels!
Can you drive your car in heels? I have always flat shoes in my car, so i can chance to a comfy pair of shoes - at least for driving a car.
Bye.
