A review by jaclyncrupi
A Theatre for Dreamers by Polly Samson

3.0

Sick of your house? Want to travel? How does Hydra in the 60s sound hanging with Leonard Cohen, Charmian Clift and George Johnston? The sense of place in A Theatre for Dreamers is glorious and the bohemian partner swapping is exactly what you’d expect. It has a bit of a My Family and Other Animals vibe but with more adult content and a feminist bent. It didn’t capture my imagination as completely as I had hoped though, but perhaps that’s more the fault of the times than the book.
