Uncle Vanya. By Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. Full Audiobook Uncle Vanya is a play written by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. The story revolves around the lives of a group of people living on a country estate in Russia. The central character is Vanya, a middle-aged man who has spent his life managing the estate for his brother-in-law, Serebryakov. When Serebryakov and his young wife, Yelena, visit the estate, Vanya’s long-simmering frustrations and unrequited love for Yelena boil over. The story delves into themes of regret, longing, and the passage of time . The play opens on a muggy autumn afternoon in the garden of Professor Serebryakov's estate. Marina, an old nanny, sits by a samovar as Astrov, the country doctor, reminisces about the time when he first came to the region, a time when Vera Petrovna—Serebryakov's first wife and mother to his daughter Sonya—was still alive. Serebryakov has recently returned with his beautiful young wife, Yelena, to live on the estate; Astrov has come to treat the Professor's case of gout. Astrov delivers an extended speech about how life has become "boring, stupid, sordid" and how his feelings are "dead to the world"; he needs nothing, wants nothing, and loves no one. Voynitsky (or Uncle Vanya), Serebryakov's brother-in-law by his first marriage and caretaker of the estate, then enters, yawning. He complains that the professor and his wife have thrown the estate out of kilter: everyone has succumbed to lethargy. When Astrov reproaches Voynitsky for his ill humor, Voynitsky replies that Voynitsky has grown old and lazy, having wasted his entire life. For many years Voynitsky—who once worshipped the professor—has sent the farm's proceeds to the professor, while reserving only a beggar's salary for himself. He now considers the professor a charlatan. When Astrov remarks that Voynitsky seems to envy Serebryakov, he readily concurs, in particular when it comes to his success with women. Sonya, Yelena, and Maria Vasilevna (Voynitsky's mother) join the party. Astrov invites Yelena and Sonya to his forest preserve. Though admitting that perhaps only an "eccentric" could think thus, he then decries man's impulse to destroy, extolling the beauty of nature and man's capacity leave his legacy to future generations. Yelena and Voynitsky then walk to the veranda. Voynitsky protests Yelena's marriage and suddenly attempts to declare his love to her: she rejects him wholeheartedly. Act II takes place at night with the professor and Yelena sitting next to each other in the dining room, asleep. A night watchman can be heard tapping in the garden. The two awaken, and Serebryakov complains of his old age. He has spent his life in scholarship only to end up in "exile." Voynitsky arrives to relieve Yelena: the professor reacts in terror. Marina enters and tenderly takes Serebryakov to bed, leaving Yelena and Voynitsky alone. Much to Yelena's dismay, Voynitsky resumes his attempts at seduction. When Yelena recoils, he once again decries the years he has wasted; Yelena is numb to his entreaty. She leaves, and Voynitsky delivers a soliloquy that imagines what could have been had they married when they first met. Some disconcerting comic relief ensues involving a tipsy Astrov and guitar-playing Telegin (an impoverished landowner dubbed "Waffles" for his pockmarked face). Once Voynitsky has exited, Sonya, who has entered the room in the meantime, converses with the brooding Astrov. I hope this summary helps you understand the book better!
