    			  It's a satire piece that is really entertaining. A very sad statement about what Socialism/Communism can do to a person written in a entertaining, almost funny in spots, sort of way.

    			  I read this for an English Literature class and to be honest the play was hard to get through the first time like most Russian Literature; however, the second and third times through I was really impressed with all the subtle political underplay and the way it spoke for &quot;the people&quot; of the time. This play is excellent and as lots of feeling if read with an open mind. I loved the satire within it almost as much as I love the satire in George Orwell's &quot;1984&quot;. I believe &quot;The Cherry Orchard&quot; is a must read.

    			  I really liked the way the characters of Gone with the Wind are brought in with more detail. I think Rhett's character could have been detailed a bit more, but the way it was written goes well and backs up things that are in <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18405.Gone_With_The_Wind" title="Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell">Gone with the Wind</a>. Overall, I was impressed with this book.
