A review by lattelibrarian
Rhinocéros by Eugène Ionesco

4.0

For fans of Kafka, The Stand, or any sort of other plague/virus/unbeknownst thing that’s taking over the world, this is the perfect pandemic read. Filled with absurdism and riotous imagery, Rhinoceros is a glimpse at keeping up with the Joneses, and trying not to let yourself get carried away with your virtues and vices…

Overall, I found this to be entertaining–though I did have to use SparkNotes to help me out…reading an absurdist play in another language is quite daunting! Yet it tested me, made me laugh out loud, and certainly put things into perspective.
