Original, insightful, painful, brave and edged in the Kafkaesque sense of the inevitable - Sanjay's play is a must read for fans of dystopia, ecological, political and socialist fiction. Easy to understand and read but perplexing because as the reader you are also forced to witness. Conversations of Singapore friends reveal suffering in restrictive haze controlled lifestyles set against the manmade ecological disasters of Indonesian fires raging out of control. These characters are also suffocating by choice and burning in the ignorance of more manmade isms - materialism, racism, terrorism, big brotherism, spiritualism, naturalism. Ordinary people battling social pressures against a planet bent on self-destruction - earthquake destroying Los Angeles, a tsunami engulfing Sumatra. As the reader, the witness, you ask yourself, what should I do? Is this the way the world ends? It's already starting to happen, isn't it? Is it too late?
