Reviews
This is a play that is set in 3 acts, in one room of the main couple's house. The play tears apart both marriages. The older couple seems to hate each other, and the younger couple seems to be perfect. But in the end, things change for both couples.This was a very, very strange book. Plays are not particularly easy to read and this one was no exception. I really don't think there was much of a plot, and it didn't have much direction. It did have some funny parts, but mostly it was wild and all over the place.
