Art Audiobook

" Reading it in French was definitely tougher - you lose a lot when you're merely trying to translate - but it was absolutely great! "

" This was great!! I enjoyed her book more because it had less structor, and script isn't my favourate format. But this was funny and shows the loony side of friendship, it's the kind of thing you remember a segmant from it and chuckle :) "

" Not the best play I have ever read, but certainly better than most. I am a big fan of Yasmina Reza's fiction and her memoir, but not so much this first play I have read by her. I will continue on and read more. I do like her dialogue but "Art" seemed a little forced to me at times. "

" This is a French play that I read in graduate school...about a painting and friendship. I recently bought it and reread it because I remembered liking it so much...it's very famous... and it can be found for free online, if interested. "

" A really unique play. I enjoyed it. "

" I love this play! I saw a production of it a few years ago at Steppenwolf (?) and they did a great job. "

" ART starts as a Becketian absurd dialogue, but can not go farther than a silly imitation. Highly acclaimed and widely read, ART shows how a popularized version of a great tradition can deceive too many people who love to be labeled as intellectuals. "

" Great character-driven piece for three men. "

" I enjoyed it -- I just wasn't blown away. That said, it seems like a script which would particularly come to life in performance. I'm sure if I saw a production of it it'd be hilarious and moving. "

" So? "

" This is a very witty play about what constitutes 'art' and the kind of violent reactions such a question provokes. 'Art' is a good example of modern drama, and is a must read for anyone interested in modern dramatic writing. "

" I think this play is mainly about these three friends in their 40's scared of what hasn't happened in their lives and how sometimes you hold on too long to friendships for the wrong reason. I really like the way she wrote this piece. "

" Interesting dynamic between the three characters with some philosophical issues. "

" Decidedly French. "

" An important play about art, about friendship and about what is and isn't real. "

" This is probably one of my favorite plays. So satirical about high society in the USA today. I actuqally saw it first, and had to buy it so I could read it again. "

" Funny yet serious. Very short yet deep. About the role of art, what art is and how seriously we should (or could) take it. "

" Ohhhh Yasmina Reza how I love you. Seriously funny. Seriously fantastic. "

" Ever been in one of those despicably pretentious conversations about the 'meaning of art'? Well, this play will make sure that you never have to do so again! And what's more, it will leave you with a smile on your face. "

" Also hilarious. Again, not my favorite. Liked God of Carnage better, but this was pretty good. "

" Certainly a masterpiece, up until the ending, which led the piece down. "

" London 2001 "

" Brilliant satire about a man who buys a white painting and the reaction of his two friends. May be my favorite play ever. "

" I love this play! I saw a production of it a few years ago at Steppenwolf (?) and they did a great job. "

" This is a French play that I read in graduate school...about a painting and friendship. I recently bought it and reread it because I remembered liking it so much...it's very famous... and it can be found for free online, if interested. "

" Interesting dynamic between the three characters with some philosophical issues. "

" I still understand what this play is getting at. But I seem to have that as a general issue with Reza's work. With time, it may grow on me. Not to say I disliked it. It's still admirable. "

" Friendships come with their own set of the challenges. What degree of becoming a chameleon occurs? Who are we or who am I? "

" Great character-driven piece for three men. "

" I think this play is mainly about these three friends in their 40's scared of what hasn't happened in their lives and how sometimes you hold on too long to friendships for the wrong reason. I really like the way she wrote this piece. "

" I saw this in London and nearly died. (We were very high up in the theatre; it would have been a long fall). "

" This is a very witty play about what constitutes 'art' and the kind of violent reactions such a question provokes. 'Art' is a good example of modern drama, and is a must read for anyone interested in modern dramatic writing. "

" I found this to be a quick, delightful read. The banter between the three men seemed natural and well-paced. I also thought the breaking of the fourth wall was handled very smoothly and effectively. That said, most of the swearing was superfluous, and that really put me off. "

" Just missed seeing the play, so I read the book. Great study on relationship dynamics. Highly recommended. "

" Funny yet serious. Very short yet deep. About the role of art, what art is and how seriously we should (or could) take it. "

" This is probably one of my favorite plays. So satirical about high society in the USA today. I actuqally saw it first, and had to buy it so I could read it again. "

" Great character study. A story about best friends. "

" Ever been in one of those despicably pretentious conversations about the 'meaning of art'? Well, this play will make sure that you never have to do so again! And what's more, it will leave you with a smile on your face. "

" I saw the original American production with Alda, Molina and Garber and HAD to order the book the next day! "
