Episode 164: EPISODE 164: “Hush-a-Bye, My Baby” by Anton Chekhov

When EQMM began publication in 1941, it contained a number of reprints of classic short stories. Founding editor and genre expert Frederic Dannay believed that almost every well known author had a least one work that could be described as mystery or crime fiction. In this month’s episode, we present “Hush-a-Bye, My Baby” by the great Russian playwright and author Anton Chekhov, which was reprinted in the February 1958 issue of EQMM, read by our Senior Managing Editor, Jackie Sherbow.
