Death and the Maiden Paperback – December 1, 1994

This post-modern literature is interesting and I would read it even if it wasn't for a class.

Super interesting play about power dynamics, torture, revenge, and truth.

A genuinely powerful and important play.

A book on the complex nature of justice and reconciliation. I loved the way the author portrays the intricate relationship between victim, victimizer and judge. A modern state parable of how harmony and peace bring into a country by burying the contentious issues of torture and atrocities against the opposite groups.

Awesome

I had to get this book for an online World Literature course on African, South American and Asian country- based authors. Definitely a must-read, and I suggest reading this before seeing any other adaptation like the Sigourney Weaver performance or Glenn Close performance.

good new condition

Great

This is a well acted recording of a performance of the play, and if, like myself, you are familiar with the play it will serve as an excellent way of delving further into the play, or of a being a reminder of an interesting night at the theatre. However, if you have not seen the play before you will struggle to understand what is happening where actions take over from dialogue, and the final scene only works when seen in a theatre.

Fantastic read. The best play I’ve ever read

i have read many plays and i found this one whilst looking for monologues. it has loads of monologues which can be taken from it and the story line is brilliant! definitely recommend this.

Book is a little damaged

Was ordered for our actors, an excellent play and deft use of character, highly recommended for study or performance. Dark but moving
