I will always stand with making fun of men and their foolishness.

I really enjoyed this play and the translation was great. I found myself audibly chuckling a few times. I knew what this play was about going in and although there’s some parts in the middle that are a bit boring or hard to follow but overall it was a great read and really shows what women can do even when they have limited power.

I'm not sure I will ever revisit this. It is just not my cup of tea.
