Reviews for "Top Girls" Made Easy

[Rooster Sultan · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

There are factual errors in this book. The plot lines that are given and the details of the characters' pasts do not always line up with the script itself. I learned nothing from reading this. The critical analysis leaves so much of the given circumstances, symbolism, and almost any actual analysis of the play out. This is basically a plot synopsis. I highly suggest you just read the play itself. It is a wonderful piece of dramatic literature.
