I forgot about the use of Chinaman in the play. Other than that, it held up. Just as funny as I remember. I probably could have done with a light Hamlet refresher before rereading this one. I would definitely recommend at least some familiarity with Hamlet before reading R&G Are Dead. It will enhanc...
This was one of those rare moments when I actually saw the movie before I read the book. Only because at the time I didn't know it was original a book. So when I stumbled across this book at the library, I finally picked up. I couldn't have made a better decision. The movie is one of my favorite...
This play is brilliant and I'm sure it deserves 5 stars. My only reason for knocking it down half a star is that you really can't read it in a vacuum.

Waiting for Godot meets Hamlet. Waiting for Godot, the original show about nothing. (Take that, Jerry Seinfeld.) This fills in the details about R&G, 2 minor characters in Hamlet.

Well, this was fun. I liked the part with the unicorns!I should probably have saved this for my dimly-planned re-read of Hamlet. For that matter, I should have re-read Hamlet six months ago before I tackled Infinite Jest.
We, again, read this in my AP English class. I wasn’t expecting to be all that impressed–to be honest, I started getting a little tired of the drama unit, as plays are so much easier to appreciate when you see them acted out–not analyzed to death based on words alone. For me, the utter lack of tags ...
Excellent. I cannot believe I gave up watching the film a while ago (especially since it featured one of my two favourite Tims in the world). I suspect watching a live performance would indeed be a 5 star experience.I loved Stoppard's wit so much, I could quote him endlessly. And of course, discuss ...
