Review # 1 was written on 2018-10-11 00:00:00 David Fechheimer I read this play whilst reading 'Asian-American Literature: An Anthology, by Shirley Geok-lin Lim.' I just stumbled upon the play and felt like reading about an older Japanese American woman (Nisei) who decided to leave her husband... and I do not regret it one bit! The story is paced really well and even though (in the beginning) I was a bit confused with all the characters, I really enjoyed the plot and development of characters. I recommend it to people who like reading about the personal struggles of second-generation immigrants or just want to read about a couple coming to terms (or not) with their dysfunctional relationship.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-07-04 00:00:00 Yoji Ishihara I prefer Chesterton's non-fiction to his fiction, but this was still fun. His fiction tends to be more scattered that it needs to be, but it was still worthwhile reading. His pithy way of putting things is always present, and the plot/conceit was great. He just needed an editor who 1. understood him; 2. had great moral authority; 3. had strong editorial chops, and 4. who was a lot of fun himself. Alas, Chestertonian editors are as rare as Chestertonian writers.
