Letters of Anton Chekhov to His Family and Friends with biographical sketchCrimea it is snugger and nearer to Russia. Let V. A. sell her place inTuapse or make a present of it to someone, and I will find her a bitof the sea-front with bathing, and a bay, in the Crimea.When you are in Vosdvizhenka give my respects and greetings toVarvara Alexyevna, Varya, Natasha, and Glyeb. I can fancy howGlyeb and Natasha have grown. Now if only you would all comehere for Easter, I could have a look at you all. Don’t forget me,please, and don’t be angry with me. I send you my warmest goodwishes. I press your hand heartily and embrace you.386
Anton ChekhovTO G. I. ROSSOLIMO.YALTA, January 21, 1900.DEAR GRIGORY IVANOVITCH,… I send you in a registered parcel what I have that seems suitablefor children—two stories of the life of a dog.

Children ought only to be givenwhat is suitable also for grown-up people. Andersen, “The FrigatePallada,” Gogol, are easily read by children and also by grown-uppeople. Books should not be written for children, but one ought toknow how to choose from what has been written for grown-uppeople—that is, from real works of art. To be able to select amongdrugs, and to administer them in suitable doses, is more direct andconsistent than trying to invent a special remedy for the patientbecause he is a child. Forgive the medical comparison. It’s in keepingwith the moment, perhaps, as for the last four days I have beenoccupied with medicine, doctoring my mother and myself. Influenzano doubt. Fever and headache.If I write anything, I will let you know in due time, but anythingI write can only be published by one man—Marks! For anythingpublished by anyone else I have to pay a fine of 5,000 roubles (persignature) ….387
