“Luminous!... A crisp, breezy new English version by Sarah Ruhl.” – San Francisco Chronicle
“Sarah Ruhl has a taste for and a way with the classics.” – The New York Times
“Sarah Ruhl's smart new translation... feels just right to contemporary American ears – lean, colloquial and conversation for us, and true to Chekhov's original.” – Cincinnati Enquirer
“Exhilirating! Ruhl doesn't call attention to herself here. Instead she lets the play breathe with a smiple, unmannered approach to the drama that makes it seem shockingly contemporary... There's a naturalness to the way the drama unfolds, the ebb and flow of the emotional outbursts, that leaves you breathless.” – San Jose Mercury News
“Luminous!... A crisp, breezy new English version by Sarah Ruhl. Its fierce beauty suffuses every moment and reaches for immortality.” – San Francisco Chronicle
“Three Sisters reminds us that few writers have ever seen into the human soul with more acuity and understanding than Chekhov.” – Boston.com
“Ruhl seems a good fit to adapt Chekhov, as each writer’s works are playgrounds of bittersweet ambiguity... a rich and sonorous version of the classic play.” – The Yale Herald
