   "It is a poor thing for the writer to take on that which he doesn’t understand."

   Anton Pavlovich Chekhov died #OTD in 1904. Chekhov's posthumous reputation greatly exceeded his expectations. The ovations for the play The Cherry Orchard in the year of his death served to demonstrate the Russian public's acclaim for the writer, which placed him second in literary celebrity only to Tolstoy. @wikipedia
