High quality literature, that's for sure. Nevertheless, it has to be read in the context of its time of origin, since the problems that are dealt with are kind of detached for the modern Czech audience.

Tahle divadelní hra se mi líbila, třebaže s postavami jsem měla celkem problém. Na začátku jsem měla problém pochopit, který z dvou mužů je vlastně manžel Alison, jelikož k ní měli oba velkou náklonost. Nakonec to byl teda Jim, což byla asi ta horší možnost, jelikož jeho chování k Alison bylo naprosto příšerné, což se ale asi od tohohle díla dalo očekávat. Drama je krátké, čte se lehce ... číst celéa rychle, prakticky samo.
