The Pillowman

Rating:
Summary: Very, very good.
Review: Before you read this review you should know that I'm not fond of reading plays. I think the narrative structure of a play is quite inferior to that of a novel when read silently. Despite my misgivings about reading this play, I have to say that I was blwon away. This is one of the most creative works of fiction I have encountered in any form. The stories contained within the story are nearly worth the price of admission alone. This is one of those stories where every little reference carries meaning and every twist has a purpose. It's a little dark and disturbing, but most things this fun tend to turn out that way. And it doesn't hurt that the dialouge is sharp and cool throughout. If you get a chance you should definitely check this out.

Summary: Absolutely Fantastic
Review: This is McDonagh's best but also darkest play- a literary love child of Harold Pinter and Stephen King...
