Strange and Effective,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Andorra (Modern Plays) (Paperback)
This play is a must read for anyone interested in the human condition. The feeling emoted from this play is one of sorrow. The state of the world today, as has always been the case, is simply dreadful. While it may be a depressing thought to some, it is important to be realistic with oneself about the world and its inhabitants. I believe that is one of the main messages put forth in the work. The other message is perhaps a lighter one with the suggestion that there is a time and a place to speak up and be heard. The truth, while it may be costly, is always worth pursuing.

Frisch's Andorra,
By ChemMJW (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Andorra (Modern Plays) (Paperback)
Andorra is a great theatric work. From the first page you'll recognize the obvious WWII undertones of the Nazi terror against the Jews. This work is powerful, because, even as just the Reader, you feel like you're being dragged along with the events of the story - they are looming, unescapable, irresistable. You know what the end of the story will be long before you get there, but you keep dreading it, hoping that something will intervene to stave off the impending disaster. Reading this drama will give you a stark picture of the inevitability of events, which, once set into motion, become incapable of being stopped by anyone.
