- Personal opinion: For me this is a amacing book. Is very interesting the things that happens in the history. Go to the theater helps me to understand the history. Reading is more complicate for me. But now I know that the story say. For me is funny this history. After the Theater I read the story and I understand all. Is a very good history to read always when you are boring.
