My views on the play ' The Birthday Party ' by Harold Pinter

                                                The Birthday Party" by Harold Pinter is able to create tension in readers mind. The play is under the category of  'Absurd Theatre'. Though various interpretations are possible of the play like..Allegorical play, Existentialism, Artist in Exile and political aspects of the play. I like most political aspect of the play. No doubt Existential anxiety remains throughout the play because we don't know  Who are the two men ? Where did Stanley come   from? The same way we also don't know who we are ? From where we come?  After reading the historical context of the play " The Birthday Party " really it is very interesting to study as political play. Stanley as developing small country.

Its all about power structure and ordinary people lik

My interpretation of the poem - " The Waste Land " by T.S.Eliot

                                                         'The Waste Land' is the masterpiece of T.S.Eliot. Eliot describes rotten state of human life in 20th century. The waste Land is the land where is nothing can be grown. The waste land is the Land of fertile, fruitless, and hollowness of human Beings in Modern age.                                                               As we all know that the poem ' Modern Epic ' divided into five parts. Each part is  juxtaposes fragments of various aspects and it is just like episodic events which seems like 'Story within Story.' As per my understanding, I try to give answers of questions which is mentioned here. 1.)  After reading image, I want to say that Friedrich Nietzsche and T.S.Eliot both are different. Friedrich Nietzsche is progressive and forward looking where as T.S.Eliot seems like regressive because both have totally different sights and beliefs. Friedrich has the idea

My review on the movie - 'Waiting For Godot'

'Waiting For Godot'                                          - Samuel Backett   'Waiting' is too much  irritating for anybody. We  all are waiting for our ultimate truth and that  is the Death only. We all are doing  something so that we  can pass the time and reach our final destination which is already decided. But we can't accept it easily. 'Waiting For Godot' is a poignant play about a ceaseless waiting, about repetition, the meaninglessness , the absurdity of waiting .  Samuel Beckett  gives the philosophy of life using absurdity  in this play. Ordinary reader  can't understand the meaning , the real depth of this play only very few are able to understand what Beckett tries to say in this play. 1. Writer Samuel Beckett inspired from the painting ‘Longing’ which is drawn by Casper David Friedrich. In this painting we find the setting ( A country road ,tree and Evening).This painting shows  longings of  our life. As waiting
