Equus
There are many authors of literature who try to add mystery to their novels/plays. Peter Shaffer does this in his play Equus. ... Shaffer provides many causes for Alan’s confusion, but he also allows the reader into this mystery by letting them come up with their own conclusions. ...
The play is structured like a mystery, as Dysart struggles to determine what drove Alan to commit the crime. But Equus is far from a conventional mystery, in which solving the crime relieves tension and restores a stable society. ... The ultimate, insoluble mystery is embodied in the horse-god Equus himself.
