An excellent story collection Copper Peanuts I'm a big Checkov fan and it's always wonderful to get more of his short stories. As there is no information about this given, there are 15 stories in this collection and they have been converted perfectly. I haven't found any errors yet. It's just a shame the contents page is not active.If you don't know of Checkov, his stories are always full of interesting and sometimes eccentric characters. The stories are always entertaining and often leave you having to read between the lines to work out wht he wanted to relate.As this is free, of course it's highly recommended, as is anything by Checkov.
