His career as a dramatist produced four classics. His plays were written in a \"stream of conscious style\" and they focus on characters grappling with ethical problems. Initially, his works confused audiences who were used to traditional forms of theatre where plays have a definite beginning, middle and ending. But his profound studies on love, grief, and time with complex and ambiguous characters changed theatre forever and brought in a completely new form of drama. \u003cp\u003eThis collection includes thirteen of his plays: \u003cbr\u003eOn The High Road, \u003cbr\u003eThe Anniversary, \u003cbr\u003eOn the Harmful Effects of Tobacco, \u003cbr\u003eSwansong, \u003cbr\u003eIvanov, \u003cbr\u003eThe Bear, \u003cbr\u003eA Tragedian in Spite of Himself, \u003cbr\u003eThe Wedding, \u003cbr\u003eA Marriage Proposal, \u003cbr\u003eThe Seagull, \u003cbr\u003eUncle Vanya, \u003cbr\u003eThree Sisters, \u003cbr\u003eThe Cherry Orchard\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benediction Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47064569479408,"sku":"9781781394045","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781781394045_p0.jpg?v=1763717336","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781781394045","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
