Chekhov won the Pushkin Prize for 'the best literary production distinguished by high artistic worth' in 1888. In 1887, Chekhov's play, Ivanov was performed for the first time to mixed, and later successful, reception. He continued to publish stories and graduated medical school in 1884. In 1879, Chekhov moved to Moscow to attend medical school and published his first short story, The Letter from the Don Landowner Stephen Vladimirovich N. Chekhov had already contributed humorous stories to a magazine he created with his brother that he called Zaika (Stammerer). His mother followed her husband to Moscow in July of that year with her younger children, leaving Chekhov behind in Taganrog to finish school and to tutor the nephew of the man who bought their estate for an unfairly cheap price.

When Chekhov was sixteen, his father fled to Moscow to escape debtors he owed for his failed grocery business. Chekhov was the third son of Pavel Egorovich Chekhov and Evgeniya Yakovlevna. Serfdom was the Russian equivalent of American slavery. The son of a grocer and the grandson of a serf, Anton Chekhov was born on January seventeen, 1860 in Taganrog, a provincial town on the Sea of Azov in southern Russia.
