Its characters have been\u003cbr\u003eseen as worthy embodiments of the universal 'human condition', or as\u003cbr\u003epassive products of pre-revolutionary Russian privilege. Either way, \u003cbr\u003ethe sisters are poignant reminders of human disappointment, \u003cbr\u003efrustration, loneliness and the passage of time. The play remains a\u003cbr\u003efirm favourite with audiences, both in Russia and in the\u003cbr\u003eEnglish-speaking world, and must be considered a fundamental work of\u003cbr\u003etwentieth-century European drama.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45082828931223,"sku":"9781853995200","price":3052.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781853995200.webp?v=1767263437","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/chekhov-three-sisters-9781853995200","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
