I know it's more edging on absurdist, but what about Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead?
AMAZING.

Posted: 10/5/05 at 1:40amI love those, especially R&G but I am very fond of Sartre's Huis Clos (No Way Out) at the moment.
I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

I read "Six Characters in search of an author" two months ago.
AMAZING.
