The Bet Anton Chekhov
Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) is generally considered to be among the greatest writers of short stories in history. The Bet is the story of a banker and a lawyer who embark on an insane bet. The banker bets the lawyer two million roubles that he cannot endure 15 years of incarceration. The lawyer agrees and the terms of the imprisonment are set.

But during the 15 years each of the characters undergoes various changes and the outcome of the bet is an extraordinary twist in the tale.
