Maybe this rating is too harsh but I didn't have enough time to fully understand the chaos that this play is.

A friend told me to prepare for agony when reading Ben Jonson, but I actually found this fun.

in bartholomew fair, jonson captures the dizzying, colourful and ultimately grubby spirit of carnival, depravity and vice the currents on which the play is directed, avarice, ignorance and gluttony the heart of its characters.

IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME AND FIGHT ONE LITERARY FIGURE, IT WOULD BE BEN JONSON FOR WRITING THIS PLAY
