From School Library Journal:

Gr 10 Up--Literary scholars, teachers, librarians, and students have come to rely on this series as first-rate collections of literary criticism. This latest entry is no exception. An important strength of the book is its balance. Chekhov's plays and short stories are carefully examined and discussions of his contributions to both genres are included. These selections are nicely complemented by pieces focusing on Chekhov, the person and the writer, one of which is a collection of reminiscences by Maxim Gorky.
