Chekhov in the works of others

[Stefani, Sara Marie]

Yelena,
You could also try Virginia Woolf's "Jacob's Room" - one of the female characters reads Chekhov and is depicted (perhaps somewhat ironically) as being somewhat Chekhovian. That could work, especially in tandem with some of the many essays Woolf wrote about Chekhov.

Subject: [SEELANGS] Chekhov in the works of others

Dear list members,
Once again, an appeal to your collective wisdom: can anyone think of any texts, either by Russian writers or writers of other nationalities, contemporary or not, that somehow engage with, make reference to, rework, etc. any of Chekhov's texts?  Katherine Mansfield is an obvious one; Viacheslav P'etsukh is another (and I am aware of Lyudmila Parts' book on Chekhovian intertext), although he has not been translated very much, as far as I know??  Any others??
I'm specifically looking for works that are translated into English, as I am hoping to include them as part of an undergraduate course on Chekhov.  I'm also specifically looking for works that engage with Chekhov in a concrete way, i.e., not simply with his style or tone.
Please reply off-list to yfurman at humnet.ucla.edu
Many thanks in advance.
Yelena Furman
