hey so, tbh i havent read every play in this collection so this is simply a review of The Gift Horse by Lydia R. Diamond. (may come back and edit when i get the chance).
This play really spoke to me. I think its very real in an emotional sense (not sure how i feel about the dialog tho it could be because im reading it ant watching it be performed so there is something missing imo) and i teared up at the end.
All of the characters were great, though i basically hated two of them. They felt so lived in and alive. It was an emotional read. Ruth's, the main character, journey was great and Jordan's parallele journey was interesting though im not fully sure if I understood it (again, i think watching actors perform this would really help).
i dunno, i just loved this particular play!
(note: the triggers im listing for the play are in there but do to the play format one may or maynot find them graphic)
