What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behaviour of their children? A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly?

What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behaviour of their children? A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly? Or a hysterical night of name-calling, tantrums and tears before bedtime? Boys will be boys, but the adults are usually worse - much worse. Christopher Hampton's translation of Yasmina Reza's sharp-edged new play "The God of Carnage" premiered at the Gielgud Theatre, London, in March 2008. Christopher Hampton has translated five plays by Yasmina Reza: "Art", "The Unexpected Man", "Conversations after a Burial", "Life x 3" and "The God of Carnage".

But is that really even possible? Some people drag their feet through life, that's just how they are. And some can't stand still while the sands of time run out. We all keep fussing and fidgeting till we drop dead. Education, global strife...Everybody has to save himself somehow. (查看原文)
表面的热闹荒唐滑稽背后其实是冰冷悲凉和残忍。"I believe in the God of Carnage." Some see life as a journey, some see it as a war. Which one are you? Personally I haven't decided, which is part of my problem.

This is the most intensive play I have read so far. Conflicts and disturbs keep popping out and help the plot move.
