Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Wilson is best known for his 1980 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Talley's Folly . His other famous plays are The Hot L Baltimore , 5th of July , and Angels Fall. The short plays in this collection, spanning more than 20 years of Wilson's writing, are arranged chronologically, starting in 1964 and ending in 1991. The early works reflect the "shock" threater of the 1960s while the later selections show 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. Recommended for all theater collections and libraries that don't own any of the author's other plays.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good short scenes, May 3, 2000
By A Customer
I have found this book very useful for doing short scene study work. The scenes span much of the career of Lanford Wilson from his earlier experimental short pieces like "Wanderng" to his more realism based scenes like "Eukiah" Lanford Wilson is one of the great contemporary American playwrights.
