READ FOR AFRO AM 677:
I liked it! Easy read, good points, heartbreaking but not explicitly graphic!

Never has a play torn me up so much as this one did.

I read this play in an African American Literature course my sophomore year of college, and fell in love. An underrated classic. A beautiful and haunting story illustrating the psychological pain discrimination and racism have on people of color even when their lives may seem alright from the outside.
