As a playwright, he ranks in popularity second only to Shakespeare in the English-speaking world. As a prose writer, he was one of the first to use the stream-of- consciousness technique, and his anti-heroic realism, full of ambiguity and allusion, provides no easy moral conclusions and results in a new kind of narrative approaching real life in a way no writer had achieved before him.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alma Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45914567934127,"sku":"9781847496683","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/9255\/8767\/files\/img_c5071a45-9fc5-43f9-a00c-b8da08ffa166.jpg?v=1758827158","url":"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/products\/plays-the-cherry-orchard-three-sisters-the-seagull-and-uncle-vanya-9781847496683","provider":"Corrections Bookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
