we delved into these monologues for my women’s lit class, and it was such a saddening yet informational and explorative read. the text is relatively face-paced—so much so that i was able to complete it in one sitting—and shines a light on many often overlooked struggles faced by women. i would highly highly recommend it!

This feels like 90s feminism.

Also it's like Georgia O'Keeffe the play and there are only so many flower vaginas you can see in your life.

This would be so boring to see live.

Despite some social elements of the foundation of this play being a bit outdated, this is still a really great read. I would highly recommend specifically reading the 20th Anniversary edition, as it has some wonderful additional history information as well as more inclusive language and frameworks in the additions. 
The actual monologues within the play are so so well done, heartbreaking, empowering. Sadly I feel this is still a must read, even 20 years later.
