Challenging and bizarre! ‘The Lesson’ was particularly unsettling. Not an easy read, but I appreciate the exploration of societal breakdown.
Utkarsh Jaiswal –
Found this collection really bizarre. The writing style was hard to follow at times and I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought.

This was my first exposure to Ionesco. I found it interesting, but a little strange and difficult to fully grasp the concepts presented.
Mayank –
A truly unique experience. Ionesco’s work is unlike anything I’ve ever read. Some parts are a bit slow, but the overall impact is powerful.

These works are fantastic pieces of art that really touch the soul. I suggest this to anyone trying to pick up absurdist pieces.

Excellent plays that provoke thought. I especially enjoyed ‘The Chairs’. Ionesco’s themes are very relevant even today.

The stories in this were really a great piece, but were not for me. I wish I understood some of the contexts more clearly!
Vishal Agarwal –
Enjoyable to read and appreciate the concepts of the text. Was not completely blown away by this read, would recommend it to theatre majors.

‘Rhinoceros’ is a masterpiece! The other plays were good, but didn’t quite reach the same level. Still, a worthwhile collection.
Ashutosh Shankar –
I struggled with the abstract nature of these plays. The introductions were helpful, but I still found it hard to connect with the characters.
Prakhar Jyoti –
Interesting read that was a bit dry at times. Ionesco writes well but at times it can be boring to get through, however stick it out!
Ishika Sharma –
Ionesco’s absurdity is definitely on display here. ‘Rhinoceros’ was powerful, but ‘The Chairs’ felt a bit long. Still, a thought-provoking read overall.
Vaishnavi –
Ionesco’s genius shines through! This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in absurdist theatre. Loved the introductions too.
Rajat Sharan Sethi –
The themes explored were very heavy and dark. Although well-written, I found the subject matter unsettling and it impacted my enjoyment.
