Playwright Chekhov (5)
I believe the answer is:
anton
'playwright chekhov' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for anton that I've seen before include "Chekhov maybe" , "- Chekhov, playwright" , "-- Chekhov, Russian dramatist" , "Boy" , "man" .)
