In his long and detailed letter to a friend and publisher, Suvorin Chekhov criticized Zola's erotic novel "Nana": "I have seen and myself sinned many times, but Zola and the lady who told you the "chop" - and ready, I don't believe. Eating a lady in the city is not as easy as they write. I have never seen any such an apartment (of course, orderly) where circumstances would allow a woman wearing a corset, a shirt and a tournament to fall on a box, or on a couch, or on the floor and use it so that the households would not notice. All these terms are like standing, sitting and so on. It is shit. The easiest way is a bed, and the other 33 are difficult and can only be performed in a separate room or bar.

The comments:
xxx: Chekhov underestimates the importance of stupidity and lack of conscience))
Yyy: No, I think it’s all right: the desired for the real. If so, everything men say about this topic should be divided by 28. Here is a novel. Chekhov is not only a writer, he is also a doctor. The doctor knows who is hurt.
Zzzz: yyy, why on 28?
yyy: empirically proven)))
XXX: Why do you think men are so inclined to exaggerate?
www: hm, I’ve got broken pieces here ))
