“ Reverse order is an interesting structure. Though we know the outcome, it doesn't make the details of the crime any less intriguing. The acts of human beings are imitated or reflected in nature, even the sinister ones. If we see things this way, and Hovanesian definitely does. He gives us a sight to remember, in a dark forest. ”

“ The thing I love about Hovanesian’s work is the element of surprise with every play I read and Wilderness does not disappoint. I was caught up in this tale of murder and jealousy till the very end. As humans, we are always patting ourselves on our backs at how far we’ve come through time and space and we try so hard to hide the basic animal we’ve stepped away from but Wilderness brings us back to the reality of how far we have to go before we can actually celebrate our evolution. ”
