A review by elluuhnn
The Son by Florian Zeller, Christopher Hampton

5.0

The most heartbreaking play I have ever read. It’s the most painful depiction of depression and the attitudes people have towards it. It address the stigma of mental health and the turmoil it causes within families. It also touches on delusion and the inability to accept the truth and the constant brushing aside of the severity of the situation that happens a lot particularly with depression. It’s the most painful thing I’ve ever read.
