In the begginning of the play on the first page I was suprised to see the word nigger used. I've always known it to be offensive to black people and didn't expect to see it in a book we read in class. I was also thrown a little off guard when I started reading by the way the charecters talked I wasn't expecting to read that kind of dialouge.
Comment: I also found the differences in the characters to be compelling because they were related. Other than the characters telling us that they are related I didn't see a connection between them.
i was also surprised to see that word used, and it seems they're using it more and more and the language is getting worse. i guess it's just something you have to get used to.
