Shirley Valentine - Longman Edition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shirley Valentine (Longman Literature) (Paperback)
This is the SCREENPLAY - not the stage version. Beware! I thought I was ordering the stage play. It's still a nice book though, with lots of notes and background info.

Delightful,

This review is from: Shirley Valentine (Longman Literature) (Paperback)
Shirley Valentine is a lovely character. She is a woman who started her life with fire and promise, and who found herself in her kitchen talking to the walls. Not because she is mad, but because her life is loveless, predicatable and dry. Until her friend takes her to Greece and her life changes, in many ways. This is an absolutely delightful story. We can all identify with Shirley and her need to have a life with a little more meaning, and we can all cheer her as she goes about getting it. This is a poignant, sad and funny story, and it is a modern classic.

For All Women, And Men Who Want To Understand Them,
By Sally Atman (ksoze@mindspring.com) (Southern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shirley Valentine (Longman Literature) (Paperback)
Shirley Valentine has become a hero to tens of thousands of women who've studied her character and applauded her life choices . . . in drama classes on (at least) two continents. Shirley is commonly uncommon, absolutely candid, and full of a range of emotions from cold fury to childlike giddiness. Anyone who doesn't know and love Shirley; anyone who hasn't made her their friend . . . please read about her!
