Maybe it's the fact that the internet is no longer revolutionary in terms of communication that makes this plot/dialogue somewhat dull and laughable at times but either way, the play really never hit me.

Although I think Craig Lucas is a wonderful writer, I often feel as though he never really seeks to find the voices of his characters which sort of leaves us with a "version of the same" all dealing with one another.

It also seems like it would need to be realized to experience its full possible effects.

Jumped off the library shelf when I was looking for plays. Decided to read. Really glad I did.

I really like how this play explores complicated, hopeful, angry, vengeful grief.

Strange play. Dated because of how technology is used in the piece. Do we feel empathy for any of the four characters??

It's a manageable play with loads of sex, struggles, and wit. I liked it.
