Chekhov's Journey is a novel by Ian Watson published in 1983.

Plot summary Chekhov's Journey is a novel in which a modern-day actor uses hypnosis to simulate Anton Chekhov's 1890 journey through Siberia.

Reception Dave Langford reviewed Chekhov's Journey for White Dwarf #40, and stated that "There are good twists in this neatly executed story, which is as 'conventional' a reality-bending yarn as Watson has written. Lacking the vaulting ambition of his God's World or the outrageousness of the recent Deathhunter, it's good entertainment with some philosophical bite."
