Middle Aged Man Entire Play
687 wordsI>Folly- Any foolish and useless but expensive undertaking The play Talley's Folly, in my opinion, is just that a folly.

It was composed of nothing but petty details in dialogue. It also had no plot or any creative twists to it that would make a reader want to continue to read the play, and consisted of two surpassingly ordinary and one ove...
