註釋Set in the Russian countryside of grand houses and serfs, the play depicts the tragicomic events precipitated by the return of a young heiress and her new husband to her family estate. Kuzovkin is a penniless nobleman who has been tricked out of his fortune and has been living in charity on the estate. A wealthy and arrogant neighbour, ostensibly calling to pay his respects to the new residents, humiliates and baits Kuzovkin until he reveals a family secret that will impact everyone.--From publisher description. | Originally translated and performed in 1996 and published with its New York production in 2002.
