Red-Hot Lovers always exist

I very much liked Neil Simon's three-act play 'Last of the Red-Hot Lovers' because this tragicomic play is also a psychological analysis of the middle class people in search of love, sex, security and happiness. The plot is Barney's attempts at extramarital affair. When he is 47, after 23 years of married life with three kids, he begins to look for someone new. Why ? because for the first time in his life he begins to think about dying. The thought of death becomes a part of his life. The only way out for him is new excitements and new hopes that will make his life more colorful. This play is certainly worth reading. Don't miss it !
