_The curtain rises on a shabby room: a desk under a window, a chair, a locker with some medicine, a stretcher.
It is undeniably the office of a country doctor.
The light is that of twilight, which contributes to giving the environment a stale quality.
On one side of the desk, the doctor.
On the other, the patient._
- So, Raskolnikov, how are we doing?
- Well, doctor... lately I've been feeling a bit like this...
- Have you followed my prescriptions?
- Yes, I wrote one review a day, as you told me...
- Did it help you?
- No. Aside from a certain MarkRChandar, everyone gives me one star.
- And why do you think that is?
- They’re jealous. Few can talk about Dante, Totò, Spice Girls like I do, without the writing losing its grip on the reader...
- So go on...
- Yes... For tomorrow, I have a review ready on Joyce's Ulysses in 150 characters.
- Good. Continue, then. Also with the pills.
- Of course, doctor.
- See you later, Raskolnikov...
- See you later, doctor.
_The curtain falls._
