Troy Maxson is a strong man, a hard man. He has had to be--to survive. For he has gone through life in an America where to be proud and black was to face pressures that could crush a man, body and soul. Buot now the 50s are yeilding to the to the new spirit of liberation in the 60s... a spirit that is changing the world Troy Maxson has learned to deal with the only way he can... a spirit that is making him a stranger, angry and afraid, in a world he never knew and to a wife and son he understands less and less...
Reading it made me uncomfortable for the main character, in a sympathetic way.
A play that evokes the complicated emotions of changing eras, the split of generational or general misunderstanding... recommended for people of any skin tone.
