I read this for university, and I am so glad I did!

This was a great play to read. The characters were well-written and so were their emotions. You understood why they acted the way they did, said the things they said, thought the things they thought. 

I definitely recommend!

i heard this was good, but it still exceeded my expectations. i adored how every character was written, and even though it was a play, I found it to be incredibly poetic.
