have no strong emotions about it because i speedran reading this in one day. cautionary tale about how excessive generosity and avoiding your problems can ruin your life. watching timon descend into madness was kinda entertaining ngl i would love to watch a prod of this play and perhaps a reread would make me like it a bit more

Middleton and Shakespeare were writing two different plays and didn’t realise it until it was too late. How fun!

I didn't like this late play after Timon goes broke. From there on it is about as interesting as the Book of Job. So boring. Not recommended.

Timon likes to throw parties and spends mire miney than he has. As people start to drop in and demand he pays his debts, his flatterers turn down his requests of monetary help.
Angry at everyone he knows, Timon moves into the forest and thoroughly hates mankind, dying in a grave he made for himself.
I have to say, I enjoyed this play more than I thought I would. The insults are great and the dialog is as witty as you would expect.
