Die Austern

Anton Chekhov's Oysters (1884) is an unsparing portrayal of poverty, hunger and class arrogance. While Chekhov's earlier stories were even more satirical, his clearer turn towards literary realism becomes obvious around this time.

Jette Kleindienst explored the story at the same time as Kristina Hajduchova. This version is larger in format, two-coloured, and focuses more on detail, space, and in-between moments.
