Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A lot of Chekhov is here - but a lot ain't!
Review: Basically I picked this book up hoping that it would have the hard-to-find play, "Wild Honey," the closest Chekhov ever came to being Noel Coward. Not here! Ivanov - not here! The Bear - Not Here! While the essays are here and several insightful writings - to call this book "THE PLAYS" is an utter falsehood, not when there is so much missing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Notable Collection
Review: Though this is not the fullest collection of Chekhov's work, it offers wonderful criticism and discussion on four of his greatest plays. The book intrigued me as a Norton Critical Edition--filled with notes, essays, and articles on one of the greatest authors of the genre. While not the complete works, arguably the best representation of Chekhov's drama available.
