77K0

This book contains two classic plays by Benavente. "The Woman Who Shouldn't Love" successfully creates an image of a woman that is said to be "the most Spanish", and "A Strong Connection" describes a series of funny and unexpected events that happened after two liars arrived in a Spanish city. Benavente's works are known for their smooth, natural and elegant dialogue. Benavente has a pessimistic and negative attitude towards social reform and progress. Therefore, most of his scripts are not deep enough, but they are light, smooth, and full of humor. The dialogues between the characters are particularly excellent, and they are often philosophical and profound.
