This review of this wonderfully subtle at first , yet intensely profound as you ponder for a long time afterwards , crisply gathers the effect and themes of this critique of values our generation are only beginning to struggle with as we approach that age when the choice between Family and career and vice versa have run their course and we examine if one made the right decision , and more importantly , got the balance right.
The characters in this play have the singular quality of being deeply unhappy.By yielding to their base appetites over conscience they give away well-being in the soul for a ethereal temporal trifling price for a short-lived ultimately vain hollow superficial mirage of pseudo-happiness encouraged by the conceited values of the age.
The real betrayal in the play is societys social pressuring the characters to conform to a "progress" that goes counter to a harmonious development both within and without.
