actually could not finish because it was so boring. pretty much all of them went like this
woman: “hello this play is ten minutes so i have to talk weird”
man: “yes yes indeed i am normal and you are quirky”
woman: “im going to go on a series of monologues about some vague topic while you chime in occasionally”
man: “i am in love with you”
(man kisses woman) (curtain close)
only two stars because there were like three that i found interesting
also i am the only person to ever write a review for this book so that’s another win for sheen
