This is my second play by Margulies and I’m once again struck by how real and whole his characters feel. His plays are such a treat to read (& I imagine even better performed).
I especially liked the commentary in this one about white liberals and their insistence on going to areas of conflict and documenting the events rather than actually helping. It felt a little too on the nose at points, but overall it didn’t detract from my reading.
