{"product_id":"fathers-and-sons-michael-bradford-9780881454208","title":"Fathers And Sons","description":"\u003cp\u003e \"FATHERS AND SONS contains many pungent exchanges, and a meaningful subject: the estrangement of fathers and sons through several generations of African-American men and how it might be healed.\u003cbr\u003e The omnipresent phantom Benard Goodwater is the bad daddy incarnate--a trumpet-toting, be-bopping ne'er-do-well, who serves as a jive Greek chorus.\u003cbr\u003e He was clearly a lousy father to his haunted son Leon. And Leon returned the disfavor to his own offspring Marcus, by becoming a coke-sniffing, child-neglecting womanizer himself.\u003cbr\u003e In FATHERS AND SONS, the two living relations, and the ghostly one, confront one another during a family crisis...\u003cbr\u003e Bradford's dialogue can sizzle and sting, and he exhibits a real flair for sexy romantic banter. That gift is exploited in the more intimate, sensuous scenes...\u003cbr\u003e Clearly, the playwright wants to explore how a man like Marcus can overcome a legacy of parental neglect and misogyny to forge a committed marriage--and maybe even a reconciliation with his father.\"\u003cbr\u003e Misha Berson, Seattle Times\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Bradford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0881454206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780881454208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Broadway Play Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.12d","brand":"Michael Bradford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47202199798015,"sku":"9780881454208","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_84ccc490-a93d-4533-98e2-8f30288da448.jpg?v=1756819912","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fathers-and-sons-michael-bradford-9780881454208","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
