Love Becomes Electra-1- Poem by Paolo Giuseppe Mazzarello

Love Becomes Electra-1-

Rating: 5.0


Here we talk about 'Mourning Becomes Electra' by Eugene O'Neill. Among various other murders, Lavinia instigates to commit the homicide of the lover of her mother Christine. Before Christine had killed her husband, Lavinia's father.

At the end of her play,
The stiff Lavinia comes home and locks.
Two shapely women were in terrible way:
Before Christine, then Lavinia felt the same shock.
A sadic husband and father didn't love them:
So the first commited suicide, the second some homicides.

I am uncomfortable evaluating a reviewer of other things. So I must tender my remarks with wisdom and respect. I find the writings informational and inciteful to one less familiar than the reviewer. I also find the language understandable and quite clear. Worthy of reading. Commendable work. GW62
