Recenzii
A work considering questions of racial, political and religious identity and assimilation with a provocative intelligence
Ms. Gurira ... chronicles the human cost of this turbulent history with impressive clarity and thoroughness ... Of course, [she] has the perspective of a hundred and more years of history to draw on in dramatizing the moral and ethical issues involved in the missionary impulse, and its alliance with the forces of colonization. It is to her credit that she rarely allows The Convert to devolve into an admonishing tract. There is sympathy in her depiction of all the play's characters, who cannot see how powerless they are to control their own fates. Believers in the old ways or adherents of the new, they are united in being caught in the grip of forces larger than themselves.
