I normally wouldn't include such a short book, but I loved it so much I had to. Glaspell packs a lot in such a small play!
loooove this play, i had to read it for school which normally causes me to dislike it, but i didn't have that with this play. it was so interesting and so many incredible points are made in such a short amount of time.

Not what I expected when I picked it up for my first lecture of the week
THIS IS EXCELLENT. EXTRAORDINARY. As delicate as poignant, Susan Glaspell constructs a -feminist- detective story as an excuse to discuss a much bigger issue, gender violence (as suffered by our choir singer) and its grandfather sexism (evidenced in the way the males behave towards the two ladies). Written with graceful sensitivity and strong determination, this play deserves more and better attention, and so does its author. We call it - knot it.
