Paul Lebedieff Monologue from Ivanoff: A Play

From Ivanoff: A Play by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov

male · melancholic · 45 sec

How is Anna to-day? (LVOFF: Very ill.) (Sighing) May one go and pay one's respects to her? (LVOFF: No, please don't. She is asleep, I believe.) She is a lovely, charming woman. (Sighing) The day she fainted at our house, on Sasha's birthday, I saw that she had not much longer to live, poor thing. Let me see, why did she faint? When I ran up, she was lying on the floor, ashy white, with Nicholas on his knees beside her, and Sasha was standing by them in tears. Sasha and I went about almost crazy for a week after that.
