person
Lyonochka Pleshcheyeva
Lyonochka
also: Леночка, Lenochka
Daughter of the poet Aleksey Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev; mentioned here as planning a visit to Moscow to call on Chekhov's family. Not a member of Chekhov's own family -- the translator flags this explicitly since "Lyonochka"/"Leonochka" could otherwise be mistaken for a Chekhov relative.
