Although obviously a famous, well- written play, I did not enjoy reading it. The two main characters, Ms. Julie and Jean, were crazy and annoying, and the plot kind of bored me. Why didn't somebody help Julie? Why was she allowed to behave the way she did? It was confusing how the characters went back and forth so often with feelings and love/lust and then evil dominance. The plot of this play was not nearly as straightforward as others we have read and I wasn't able to relate to the characters as much.
I did, however, enjoy the symbolism and themes of love and lust and feminism. You can tell how feminism is becoming more prominent in theatre as time goes on.
