Beautifully written and just keeps getting richer and richer. Groff muses on how we present ourselves to the world and to those we love, how and why that happens, and possible fallout. Based around the marriage of Lotto and Mathilde, in Fates we first learn of Lotto's past and his view of their life Furies tells us Mathilde's view. Mathilde and Lotto haunt each other's stories; Mathilde is a particularly strong presence and can be felt throughout Fates. Groff has drawn the characters unsympathetically, but we also see them through the eyes of each other, with all their love, idolation, indulgence and annoyance.
