Anya, the second daughter, is troubled by Ranevskaya’s unwillingness to face the truth and the uncertainty surrounding the Cherry Orchard. The day of the inevitable auction, Ranevskaya keeps disregarding the truth until the end, despite Varya, the first adopted daughter, telling her that the Cherry Orchard will be sold. |
