Rohan Uddin

Beautifully structured, this play about an affair is brilliantly written, with such amazing dialogue. I absolutely loved it. Now it's time to hear the BBC Radio adaptation...

Vanya de Lang 

Excellently written. This play let's you feel all the emotions of betrayal, jealousy, pain, sadness and acceptance. How do the characters cope with the hurt they have inflicted? With the lies they have told? How does this beginning (and this ending) set up the rest of their lives? Would definitely recommend!

Trever

3.5. The structure here is much more interesting than the story itself. Very Pinter-y in the conversation style, although this is much more realistic than his earlier work. Maybe if I saw it played I'd be more invested in the story. Very well-executed overall, though.

Shameera Nair Lin

Rather underwhelming as a story, but the style is highly fascinating. Definitely better when staged.

Sanne Thomsen

I probably wouldn't have liked this, if it was any longer, but as a short story it was okay. I guess plays just aren't really my thing. (Although this is the first play I have ever read)
