Chekhov's "Glupyi frantsuz" in English

[Joseph Schlegel]

I found a translation of "The Stupid Frenchman" (I would opt for "The Silly Frenchman" myself) on a blog by Michael Wasiura. Perhaps it will suit your purposes.

Dear Marina,

The story's original title is "Na chuzhbine". There is a couple of plays
based on this story. You can easily find them on the internet.

My best,
Irina Dolgova

>>I am looking for an English translation of Chekhov's short story "Glupyi frantsuz" (1886).  So far I have not been able to find it.  It was considered a "minor" story even by the author, so my fear is that it has never been translated into English.  Any help locating the story in English (if it exists) would be much appreciated!
