Today’s man is not living for himself but for others. The axis of his own life revolves and revolves so much around the good of others that he becomes a living corpse prematurely, hollow and lonely inside.
The play has also put this symbolic corpse to sleep to highlight its importance.
The story revolves around Mona. Mona is a fat but sensible, conscious and sensitive girl who is capable of making her own decisions. She also has the courage to endure the difficulties that come her way, while her sister Samia is the opposite of her. She has been sacrificing all her passions and desires as a daughter and as a wife for the sake of her mother, then for her husband. She is an ideal girl, but in trying to be good for everyone, she becomes so self-defeating that she dies of depression.
Her father and sister Mona were aware of the sacrifices Samia had to make to become a slim-smart ideal wife and daughter. Her physical and mental health gets affected until it reaches the point that she loses her life.
Her father regrets that if only her husband and mother would have let her go to a doctor, she would have recovered from this mental illness, but both of them thought that it was just a delusion that she had become mentally ill because of her She has every ideal thing in the world, she is beautiful, she is smart even after becoming a mother, she has wealth, she has a good husband, she has a good house, she has good parents, she has a good lifestyle, so how can such a person get any disease. How can depression happen?
Here the point is highlighted that ideal life is available to man but life is negated from it.
The peace and joy of life lies in being normal. Even though Mona is fat, but she does not suppress her true emotions, she cries when there is an opportunity to cry, she can also laugh openly, she also lives the small moments of life. You can also speak your heart. Anger can also. One can even drive a scooter without thinking about what people will say.
Mona is the power decision that a strong and mentally healthy person has, he has an idea of his obesity.
