    Great Souls: At Home by Anton Chekhov

    In celebration of Anton Chekhov's 163rd Birthday we are releasing a special edition of our Great Souls Podcast.  In classic Chekhovian fashion, "At Home" is a short comedy with incredible hidden depth that follows a father as he attempts to discuss his seven year olds smoking habit.  Chekhov explores family, loss, and the nature of truth, all tinged with his classic hypocritical comedy.  We hope you enjoy and join us in the celebration!   At HomeBy Anton ChekhovAs read by Rob BurgessHosted and Directed by Gavin Reub   Enjoy!  And if you like what you hear then please consider donating.Donate Here.
