As its a series a plays as well as being a translation, you definitely miss something when just reading it. With that in mind, I can't say I really enjoyed or got much out of reading this one personally. I found the plays fairly depressing and similar to the point I mostly just wanted to finish them quickly. Maybe someday I can come back and give these another fair shake, but for now, just going to move on to another book.
