Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? discussion

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is about two seemingly perfect couples and all of their late night, drunken tales. One of these couples is George and Martha, the older married couple who seem like they may be going strong. One of their issues is that they always like to poke fun at each other, but sometimes thy take things a little too far, making each other angry. One of their lesser moments in the book is when they tell the other couple, Nick and Honey, about their son. The thing about their son is that he is made up. George and Martha fabricated their son because of their inability to have a real child. All of this fighting leads to George and Martha having a very unstable relationship. Nick and Honey also have an unstable relationship. At first, it seems, they're a perfect young couple who are in love. As the story progresses, though, it is revealed that their relationship isn't much better than George and Martha's. Apparently, the only reason that they got married is because Honey had a hysterical pregnancy. The book is very good. Although at first it was hard to understand the time of day and setting, it is soon clearly revealed to be George and Martha's house at around two or three in the morning, after a dinner party. Although it was an easy read, it was not as easy to pick up some of the underlying themes were harder to pick up on. I still don't know how the song "Virginia Woolf" that George and Martha sing throughout the show fits in, even though I looked up Virginia Woolf. Another thing about the book that was very interesting is the fact that the two couples are so different, yet at the same time similarities can be found, such as the fact that they both have something to hide. Overall, this book was a great read, and I would recommend it to most readers who can handle some of the more mature themes.
