| Summary | "Venäläisiä talonpoikia" by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov is a narrative work written during the late 19th century. The story explores the lives of rural Russian peasants, depicting their struggles, poverty, and the social issues they face, particularly in the wake of political upheaval. Central to the narrative is Nikolai Tshikildejev, a former waiter from Moscow, who returns to his village with his family in search of a simpler, more affordable life amid his deteriorating health. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to Nikolai Tshikildejev as he arrives home in the village of Shukovo. He hopes to recover from illness, but the grim reality of his family's living conditions quickly becomes evident. The opening describes the dreary state of the home and the pervasive poverty that surrounds them, contrasting Nikolai’s previous life in Moscow. The passage also introduces other characters, such as Nikolai's wife, Olga, and their daughter, Sasha, as they navigate the challenges posed by their impoverished rural environment. Their return to the village sets the stage for deep examinations of family dynamics, social hierarchy, and the stark realities of peasant life in Russia during this tumultuous period.
