CHILDREN AND CHILDISHNESS IN EDWARD ALBEE’S WHO IS AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?

Abstract

Children are the most beautiful beings in the world. They are the real creatures who smiled from their hearts. One can find real love and happiness in them. Children are the best blessings given by the God to a couple that makes their life complete with the love and laughter they bring. On the other hand being a couple not having a child will not be taken as an ordinary thing. Even the society never let them lead their freely and keep on digging the same question that makes them to feel their life quiet boring and meaningless one. The same situation was faced by the couple who was in good profession and gained good name in the society. When the society started questioning about their parenthood, they experienced how far they have been detachment from the real life. Edward Albee in his drama portrayed the pain of a childless parent and their double role who pretended having a child in order to escape from the caramelized poisonous words from the society.
