Lulu Plays and Other Sex Tragedies: Earth Spirit; Pandora's Box; Death and Devil; Castle Wetterstein Book

Overall, it was good.

It's strongest point was it's writing. It had very beautiful passages that really felt alive at some points. But it was let down, by how sometimes it felt as if the author was just chewing up and spitting the plot down your mouth.

It shows that Corneille was struggling with the rules of the age, and that if not constrained it would've turned out much better. Trying to keep the three unities, the plot felt a little nonsensical and rushed.

Out of the characters Chimène was relatable though at times annoying and Rodrigo was a Mary Sue. The strongest character for me was the Infanta, for some reason she was the most poignantly written. Everyone else was unimportant and forgettable.
