Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Nothing that I expected!
I devoured this in a half hour. As a theatre major, a friend of mine told me to look into the mother's role. I hate being typecast as a mom, so I went into it semi-hesitantly. I was seriously surprised and taken aback at the family dynamics so different from anything in our social norms. The play is daring, quick-paced, and brutally honest in its look at the dangerous topic of incest.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - You'll Get Addicted!
This play is so incredibly awesome that I strongly suggest any aspiring playwrights, actors, directors, and anyone who loves a good dark comedy MUST READ THIS PLAY! The movie features Parker Posey as Jackie-O and if you want to see this superbly written character come to life, then you should go out and rent the dvd as well. Wendy does an amazing job creating characters in a complex world of incest, murder, family disfunction, and insanity. You want all the characters to win even though you know they cannot. Beautifully comedic with crisp witty language and banter. Read it and I promise you will agree!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - a brilliant, twisted ride
Upon finishing The House of Yes, I decided that it was without a doubt one of the best plays I have ever read. Set in the dysfunctional Pascal home during a hurricane on Thanksgiving, the audience gets a glimpse at the incestuous relationship of twins Jackie-O and Marty, their fascination with the Kennedy assasination, and what happens when an outsider (Marty's doughtnut shop worker fiancee Lesly) is thrown into the mix. Wendy MacLeod has written a brilliant play and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good, grey comedy.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Completely Twisted
I read this book and was completely thrown from my seat. If you like the utterly messed up than this is your book. Jackie O. is the best character I have ever encounterd in any of my reading escapades. You almost want her to get what she wants and that is why it is completely twisted. My review does not even give the book its proper justice. Order it.
