All My Sons
Well here you have it! My first post about a play. This play was written by the famous playwright Arthur Miller (who has also written The Crucible and Death of a Salesman). When we received the book in school I wasn't expecting anything extarodinary. But as I started reading I got hooked. I can surely say that this is my favorite piece of literature that I have read in school all year. The story takes place right after World War II, concerning a family, distressed from losing their sons. As you go along your mouth will start to hurt from all the jaw-dropping ;) This story also has one of the most intense and surprising endings that I have ever read. I would definitely recommend this quick, fast paced and thrilling three act play.
