Something about "The Lady With the Little Dog" I forgot to mention. Kate Winslet´s character in The Reader starts learning how to read with this story. A must-see film.

Chekhov: The Lady With The Little Dog.
Anton Chekhov was a genius. His stories are written so elegantly that it is difficult to choose just one among his many great stories. "The Lady With The Little Dog" is a masterpiece. A great text to begin my holiday readings.
There is a 1960 film based on this story that you can watch here.
