A review by irina_sky
Fuenteovejuna by Lope de Vega

5.0

"Fuenteovejuna did it."
Lope de Vega's Fuente Ovejuna provides the story of a local Commander who is a tyrant over the townspeople. He rapes the wives of town officials, he seeks to dishonor the Mayor's daughter Laurencia and poisons people's lives in many other ways.
This play contains rather peculiar thoughts on love and relationships between men and women.
It was an extremely interesting read! I should never have thought that a book written so long time ago could enthrill me so much.
