Der Bär: Groteske in einem Aufzug by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov

"Der Bär: Groteske in einem Aufzug" by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov is a one-act comedic play written in 1888. A widowed landowner has locked herself away in mourning when a boorish creditor arrives demanding immediate payment of her late husband's debt. What begins as a heated argument over money escalates into insults, a challenge to a duel, and an unexpected turn of emotions. This farcical comedy explores the clash between stubborn personalities and the surprising ways passion can emerge. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
