Waiting Fo - eva

While reading the play Waiting for Godot, I found it pleasant to read, yet I also thought it to be a little deceiving and complex. One can see that there are two acts, but within these two acts, so much happens! I was drawn to the character, Estragon, because he was the most funny and impatient out of the characters. He seemed to play with words, and this really causing the audience to think. One of the more significant characteristics in the play was the use of repetition and references to biblical things. The main characters always repeat sentences, this being very curious! They also do repeat the same actions time and time over, with the messenger and with Pozzo and Lucky. I also found it particular that the author used so many references to the bible, gospel, and even comparing some of the characters with biblical ones. Furthermore, even though they always say they are going to leave, at the end of every play there they are again, same spot where they began! Its as if they are sitting there waiting on something to happen to them, instead of getting up and doing something about it!
