Although I had to read it for class, I actually enjoyed A Streetcar Named Desire. It has detailed, interesting characters with equally engaging relationships between each other. I love the way the setting of New Orleans was described and the role it played in the events of the play. The play also comments on many important themes, including racism, sexism, classism, mental illness, suicide, domestic abuse, and more that I found interesting to analyze.
