'Gone Astray' is one of Chekhov's earlier comedic short stories that is a light-hearted romp about two drunken lawyers trying to find their way home at night. Chekhov's masterful use of irony is present here as one of the lawyers, Kozyavkin, accidentally violates the law by breaking into a house he believes to be his own.
