Let us know what you think. I clicked on this immediately because I wondered how long a play would have to be to do this book justice! And me thinks 90 is a bit on the short side.

Granted, I liked the movie version of Anna Karenina even though it was atrocious to the book simply because it was a visual feast. So maybe that's a trade off here too?

Okay. I don't know about anyone else, but I am much more forgiving about modern interpretations (as in revising it to modern times, modern dress, modern speech, etc.) than straight up adaptations. I guess I give extra credit points for the updating.

But yes, it does sound like it should be at the very least interesting.

Interesting. Although, I would think most people would see it because they read the book (maybe not--if they're looking for a way to know the book without having to actually read it). That's a lot of presumption though.

Now I want to revisit the book. hmmmmmm

Ah. That would make sense. Well, I'm all for trying something new. But read the book too! :)

Ha!
