The title of the story is “A Day in the Country”. The author of the story is
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. He was born on the 29th of January 1860 and
died on the 15th of July 1904 (aged 44). He was a Russian play writer and a
short story writer, who is considered to be among the greatest writers of
short fiction in history.

The characters in the story are Fyokla, Danilka, Uncle Terenty, and
Silantysilitch.

Fyokla, a little beggar girl of six. The white-haired barefoot child and pale,
her eyes are wide open, her lips are trembling.

Danilka, fyokla’s brother, a little fellow of eight, with hair as red as ochre
and a pale sickly face.

Terenty, a tall old man with a thin, pack-macked face, very long legs, and
barefoot, dressed in a woman’s tattered jacket.

While Silantysilitch is the sacristan, he is tverenty’s bosom friend. He is the

way for fyokla to find terenty.

A Day in the Country is a story of two orphaned children at play when a

storm is going towards their town forcing the people to take refuge. On the
other hand, Danilka manages to have his hand stuck in a tree which in need
for assistance. Luckily Danilka’s sister Fyokla was able to get some help from
the towns cobbler and rescue Danilka. The storm passes and the rest of the
afternoon the three of them enjoy the splendors of the country. Danilka is
awed by nature and its beauty. I think the theme of the story is that,
happiness is not always measured by extravagant things or experiences.
Because danilka and fyokla are beggars, they would think that the world is
so cruel to them, but when they see the nature after the storm in their
town. There they were able to see the beauty. Which we in the city could
not really experience. I think the moral of the story is that simplicity is
beauty. There are things that others have that you may not afford yet there
are things as well that you have which cannot have. It’s your perception.
Well after reading it the 2nd time, I was able to understand it more and I
should say that the story is a good one. It has a country vibe and it doesn’t
make your brain work that much, like solving things, predicting something.
It’s just a simple yet refreshing story. It would have been nice if my mom
read that to me when I was young. my favorite line in the story is ” He longs
to tell someone all that is haunting him now in the darkness and agitating
his soul, but there is no one to tell”. That line is my favorite because I could
see myself upon this line, it’s the same way for me. Sometimes when i’m
alone I keep on thinking of the memories I have the good one’s specially and
it seems like I wanted to share it yet I don’t show it. Others would tell me to
share something yet I would say that I have nothing to share, but deep
inside I want to share it. So I have learned a lesson from this. I have people
on my side that I can tell or share these memories of mine while danilka
don’t have, I think i should not waste this chance of mine.
