Question
One of this author’s characters laments falling in love when “grey-haired” in a story that ends with the statement that “the hardest, the most complicated part was only just beginning.” That character created by this author, who calls women “the lower race,” goes to a provincial town abbreviated “S.” to attend an opening night of The Geisha. In a story by this author, the protagonist has an affair with the wife of the official von (*) Dideritz, whom he met in Yalta while she was walking a Pomeranian. While himself in Yalta, this author wrote a play in which the servant Firs is left behind at an estate which is sold to Lopakhin (“loh-PAHK-in”) by Madame Ranevskaya (“rah-nev-SKY-ah”). “The Lady with the Dog” is by, for 10 points, what playwright of The Cherry Orchard? ■END■
