When people marry, some would assume that such couples are a match made in heaven. Nevertheless, not all marriages are that pleasant. For example, Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? remains a controversial classic because it openly depicts a marriage in crisis between George and Martha. Marriage itself is a bit tricky because of the subjectivity of love itself. That is part of the narrative that Mr. Ben had written entitled, The Broken Mirror.
Starting with background information, Mr. Ben reveals the harsh realities about marriages that fail. This insightful story displays conflicts between Bode and his wife, Cynthia. Even though their marriage had lasted for seven years, their relationship turned sour. In terms of symbolism, the number "seven" is a possible references to the seven deadly sins in Christian theology. Furthermore, the heartbreaking plot showcases how married couples may not share mutual love and respect.
The Broken Mirror is a reflective work that reflects how what someone sees might not necessarily be what that person perceives.
