“To read this anthology of Lanford Wilson’s short plays is to take an exhilarating free fall through three decades of history…By the time you reach a later piece…you will begin to grasp the extraordinary emotional, historical and theatrical span of a writer who illuminates the deepest dramas of American life with poetry and compassion.” Frank Rich
“The early works reflect the 1960’swhile the later selectionsshow the growth and maturation of an accomplished writer. For most entries, Wilson includes notes that let him explain his thoughts or inspirations. This collection is an absorbing rendition of a playwright’s voice, and the format is well suited to the reader’s edification.” Library Journal, January 1994

Lanford Wilson’s writing leaves an indelible fingerprint of humanity for the reader to detect witrh gasps of delight. This is how life was in our century , and future generations will savor the song.” Marshall W. Mason, director
