An Anonymous Story by Anton Chekhov was first published in 1893. This English translation was published in 1917 in the collection The Lady with the Dog and Other Stories.
In An Anonymous Story, Chekhov continues to explore his favorite themes of superfluous men, ironic rakes, exploited women, and the dangers of social conventions to human happiness.
The Anonymous Narrator is a would-be revolutionary who gets himself hired on in the household of the young useless aristocrat Orlov, hoping to spy out some useful information for the Cause.
Orlov seduces the beautiful Zinaida Fyodorovna away from her husband but quickly tires of her. The Narrator, another in the long line of Russian literary superfluous men, allows Orlov to use him to deceive Zinaida Fyodorovna, hating himself for it all the while. . . .
Chekhov's subtle sympathy for the women victimized by conventional marriage is demonstrated in his narration of Zinaida Fyodorovna's tragic unraveling, ending in a masterful final chapter of heartbreaking ambiguity.
