Lots of good dialogue, some bordered on cheesy, didn't really lead to much of anything.

This play continues to be one of my favorite plays of all time. I first saw it live a few years ago and on a whim decided to reread it today. The characters are so well written, and it’s such a fast paced play that can suck anyone into its world. It’s an enduring classic for me.

Utrolig spennende manus, selv om historien omhandler relativt vanlige mennesker. Sykt godt skrevet også, med levende, ekte karakterer. Det er umulig å skulle heie på bare en av dem. Anbefales!!

I loved how this play unfolded. I loved how it ended with hope. I loved the ambiguity -- was Catherine really crazy? If she was, how much? Did she write the proof (I think she did)? Did her dad help? Does it matter?
She so powerless during most of the play but she gains that power back; not by demanding but revealing herself and disrupting the world that she's been forced into. She seems shattered but she isn't, really. She's doing the shattering.
I'm going to have to think on this one for awhile. I really loved it.
