About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Uncle Vanya by Anton Chekhov. Uncle Vanya (subtitled “Scenes From Country Life”) is a tragicomedy by Anton Chekhov. It is set on the failing country estate of a retired professor, Serebrakoff, who returns after a long absence with his beautiful young wife, and throws the household into confusion.
