overall a fun time! feels like a watered down version of the odd couple, which kinda makes sense seeing as he wrote that one literally two years later. a bit of misogyny but it was of the time so it didn’t impact my enjoyment much. i just love neil simon’s style

Great one-liners, fun to listen to. I feel like it's too short and not developed enough after all the novels I've been listening to lately.

I think this is the funniest Neil Simon play I've ever read. An exaggerated-but-hilarious slide of what happens when a free-spirit marries a nine-to-fiver, and when newlywed optimism turns into real-life experience.

Short, cute read. The audio is a performance and the actors did a really great job. Glad I picked it up during an Audible promotion.

An American classic comedy. It's a little dated, but still pretty entertaining. The audiobook I listened to had Laura Linney as Corie, and I think it was a perfect match.

من نمایش نامه خون نیستم تئاتر بینم، تنها رلیلم برای خواندن این کتاب این بود که آن را از دوست عزیزی کادو گرفتم
و به طرز خوشایندی سورپرایز شدم! فکر می کنم اولین نمایشنامه ای بود که بدون این که از جایم بلند شوم تمام کردم
کوتاه است و وقت زیادی نمی گیرد اما شخصیت ها به طرز عجیبی زنده و اتفاق های روزمره هیجان انگیز می شوند. بعید است موقع خواندن این شخصیت ها شمارا یاد خورتان یا ادم های اطرافتان نیدازند
اگر به اندازه ی من در کادو گرفتن این کتاب خوش شانس نیستید پیشنهاد می کنم حتما آن را بخرید تا لااقل با خواندنش خوش شانس باشید
حتی اگر مثل من نمایش نامه دوست ندارید

It's very amusing but only 1 hour long.

A domestic comedy example of its time, funny and witty.
