Really, I've started to read the book!

Today I was just in a bed mood, but I was surprised when a book which I ordered from UK arrived. To lazy to do something I opened the first page and I couldn't stop!

So far I find out that the play is devided into ACT ONE,TWO and THREE.
Right now I should tell you something about the main characters! And you will not believe me, but I enjoyed reading the book.

Let's start with my favourite character and it is:


Margaret (by the way I call her Maggie)
She is that cat! She is a gorgeous and bright cat. Maggie is the woman who is missing love. How can a "hot" lady like her miss a love? Her husband Brick's refuse her, because of his best friends Skipper. (I'm sorry, but I can't tell you more about him right now...or little I can....he thinks she cheated him with Skipper). Maggie is the character who transfixed everybody! With all her effort to love her, to listen to her or just to amaze she creates perfect atmoshpere in the play. She is a desperate women in her sense of loneliness for sex, friends, children which is creating with intense envy, longing and possession. Maggie hates Mae+ Gooper+ 5 children because they are insincere ($$$$$$$). She call Mae's children "NO-NECK MONSTERS", which makes me laugh all the time I read it! In the Act One, Maggie is trying to seduce her husband with all ladies power.                                                                                                                    

"What is the victory of cat on a hot tin roof?--I wish I knew...
Just staying on it, I guess,as long as she can"














Brick: 


The favorite son, alcoholic and stubborn man. He is a perfect guy with muscles and strong body. By the time  I read the first act, I'm confused with his orientation, because he is not inlove with his beautiful wife. Is he really a gay? No he is not! But you ladies know that men are stubborns, which means they believe their best friends instead of their wife, but I'm not telling all do! How is he like? He is ignoring Maggie and he shows it with clear short answers. In my eyes he is missing something from the childhood, because he doesn't even want to celebrate Big Daddy birthday or sign into his greeting card. Sometimes it does look like he wants Maggie to leave him. But what surprise me is that is the only one with no interest of money!
Maybe that's why he doesn't like Maggie...





                                                    



Mae:

Even thoug I haven't watch the movie yet, I imagine Mae as ugly, squeal woman. She is a robot ("monster of fertility") who wants with her husband Gooper all property of Big Daddy! She is annoying with false love to her children. The only thing she wants is money, money, money! 



BIG MAMMA

She is Brick's mother. So far she is a old, fat, earnes, sincere lady who loves her husbnad and children. She is irritating person with huge worry of her lovely son Brick. She feels like a queen in her house and she doesn't like to change her routine. She is inlove with Big Daddy and with the new from the "Ochsner Clinic" that Big Daddy is not dying she is the happiest person ever. ( Poor she, she doesn't know the truth) 


So far there are no more characters you should know about. Wait, wait you will hear more about Gooper, Big Daddy and maybe anyone else. 


My favourite part (this make me laught for a while)
......Annoying Mae comes to Brick's room and starts to talk with her whistling voice.

Mae:
Oh, my! Brick---Brick, you should've been downstairs after supper! Kiddies put on a show. Polly played the piano, Buster an' Soony drums, an' then they turned out the lights an' Dixie an' Trixie puhfawmed a toe dance in a fairy costume with spabklubs! Big Daddy just beamed! He just beamed!

Margaret: (IRONY)
Oh, I bet. It breakes my heart that we missed it!
But Mae? Why did y'give dawgs' names to all your kiddies?

Mae:
Dog's names? 

Margaret:
Dixie, Trixie, Buster, Sonny, Polly!--Sounds like four dogs and a parrot.....
