I was surprised by how much I ended up loving this play. It's a really interesting character study about the effects of racism and class (among other things) on America that has me constantly returning to spot more details - symbolism, foreshadowing, and so so much double-speak - that I hadn't realized the first time I read it, so my copy is steadily being filled with notes and highlights each time I revisit it.
