Ward No. 6 - Chekhov, Anton

Details

In a forgotten provincial hospital, Doctor Andrey Ragin discovers the unsettling truths of his own life while overseeing a grim psychiatric ward. As he debates philosophy with a patient deemed insane, the line between sanity and madness begins to blur. Chekhov’s haunting tale is both a critique of indifference and a meditation on the fragility of reason, forcing readers to confront the boundaries of freedom, suffering, and the human soul.
