Question

short story is based on the author​

Answer 1

Answer:

Anton Chekhov

Chekhov wrote from every point of view: men, women, old, young, rich, poor. And he was able to get under the skin of all these different sorts of people, thus proving that you don’t have to write about who you are all the time. He had this incredible compassion and humanity for whoever he was writing about. He remains the best at creating sympathy for unsympathetic characters. Read The Duel or The Witch, which both feature protagonists you might not approve of, and by the end your heart is just breaking for them. There weren’t so many rules for short stories back then. Those have been established more recently. Apparently, every short story needs an intro, climax, denouement, and especially, as an editor once old me, an epiphany. I don’t believe in that. Chekhov just took a character and, though something always happens to that character, they’re not wiser for it necessarily. But the reader is wiser.
