    Nice. The satire works well with these characters and the story/plot is unique and fun. I expected Eve to be almost militant in her political bent, but she was sweet and merged with Adam very well. The dialogue is good and this would be great staged. An enjoyable comedic farce.

    A well-written piece with tension, honesty, and pathos. Funny as well! You're drawn in and hope they find a way to reach out and build together. But humans always seem to make it more complicated than needed, don't they? I'd love to see this staged.

    What really nailed it for me with this play was the ending. I went along for the ride, enjoying it as I read - all the while expecting an agreeable conclusion - yet received, instead, a jolt of lightning in a shot glass. And let me say that I love it when a writer can take a well-worn subject and breathe fresh, exuberant life into it. Kudos!

    I saw this piece performed and it was excellent!!! The audience was laughing out loud throughout, and then would go silent in a good way during more poignant or thought-provoking moments. ANJ MARIE RIFFEL has an unmatched creativity that houses intense concepts in an approachable way every time.

    I had the pleasure of seeing a hilarious and poignant reading of ANJ MARIE RIFFEL's Garden of Sweden recently, and I cannot recommend it enough. This thoughtful two-hander is full of everything that makes a short play great - revelation, evasion, and texture... lots of beautiful texture. Add in RIFFEL's brilliant humor, and audiences will be in heaven. This is a winner for any short play festival. LOVELY!
