Rating: Summary: Extremely overrated Review: This play is good but not great. I had to read this in eigth grade for English class. There's a lot of irony in that; our teacher made us read this book but would not allow us to read To Kill a Mockingbird, because she thought our parents wouldn't like us reading a book about racism! ARITS DOES deal with racism! The Younger family is compelled to live a hard life because they are black; in fact, when they finally get enough money to build a new life, they find the perfect house in a white neighborhood - and are instantly offered money to NOT move there. Last time I checked, that was considered racism. I don't see how you can compare ARITS with TKAM; some say the difference is in black and white. Maybe so, but you must take into consideration that TKAM is told through the eyes of an innocent child, and cannot be expected to have the entire harsh perspective as ARITS does. I personally thought this play inappropriate for middle-school aged children, particularly because of some choice words, but that's just me. TKAM is a better choice for younger people on the topic of racism. This play also might lose the interest and patience of the reader. The ending was very strong, as were some other parts, but on the whole the play is very verbose. There isn't really much action, just a family talking on and on about dreams that will never be, and why they won't ever be. And if that's what you're interested in, take philosophy class.
Rating: Summary: A Raisin In The Sun Review: "A Raisin In The Sun" is a excellent play. I learned a lot from this play and I would recommand the book or movie to anyone. The play is about an African-American family who have slight financial problems and family disagreements. Overall I really enjoyed reading the play and learned never to trust anyone with valuable items.
Rating: Summary: Worst book ever ! Review: The play "A Raisin in the Sun" was a very boring book. There wasn't anything interesting about it. It was about a struggling black family that lost all the money they had. Chances are you won't be able to relate to anything in this book. The book ended before it even started.
Rating: Summary: A Raisin In The Sun Review: The book "A Raisin In The Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry was an outsatanding book to read. The author showed one issue that families go through eveyday. Which that issue was money. All the characters had thier own idea of the way the money should be spent.It showed what problems it cause, which teached a lesson.
Rating: Summary: A family struggle Review: A raisin in the sun was a confusing book. This book has an interisting story that describes how the families go through different situations in life. The family Younger had many problems but managed to stay together. The family members had to make different decisions and some brought consequences to the entire family. The same problems that were in the book could be the same problems others may have.
Rating: Summary: A Raisin in the Sun Review: This was a very interesting look at racism, poverty, and money issues that many people can relate to. We have all had a "Dream Deferred" and know what it is like to not get what we want. In this novel, three family members all have different ideas, but when it seems none of them can get their way, something happens that makes them happier in the end.
Rating: Summary: A Rasin in the Sun Review: The book "A Rasin in the Sun" deals with a lot of conflicts including money, racism, love, and trust. The story is about the Youngers, a black family living on the South Side of Chicago. It details the family's different views on what should be done with the ten thousand dollar check. The character Mama wants to buy a house. Her son Walter Lee wants to open a liquor store, and the daughter Beneatha wants to finish her schooling. In each scene, a character is faced with a different decision. The story is written as a play. I personally thought "A Rasin in the Sun" was on okay book, and I would tell anybody who loves to read plays to read this story.
