The thirty-four stories in this volume span Chekhov’s creative career. They present a wide spectrum of comic and serious themes and a variety of techniques. (His short novels, available in another Norton volume, Seven Short Novels by Chekhov, have been omitted.) Two of the stories have been newly translated for this edition by Professor Matlaw; the other translations, by Constance Garnett, Ivy Litvinov, and Marion Fell, have been revised in accordance with contemporary usage. Footnotes have been supplied wherever wherever necessary to explain peculiarities of Russian life and the historical epoch.
Backgrounds are provided by a rich selection of Chekhov's letters, in new translation by Professor Matlaw, and by Gorky's famous essay on Chekhov, translated by Ivy Litvinov. The critical essays offer general vies of Chekhov's art and achievement and detailed analyses of particular stories. The critics are D. S. Mirsky, A. B. Derman (whose essay has been translated from the Russian especially for this edition), Renato Poggioli, Gleb Struve, Donald Rayfield, Karl Kramer, Virginia Llewellyn, and Nils Åke Nilsson. A Selected Bibliography is supplied as an aid for further study.

评分都是很有代表性的短篇，但还必须要再看中长篇和剧本。Norton总是良心提供很多文论，只是字小且书贵。Mirsky的文章很有用。
