The Monologue Plays (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781448671991)

This collection of 75 original plays explores a rare but potent theatrical form: the short monologue as a complete and independent play. In a matter of minutes, each play evokes a rich world populated by engrossing characters. Mixing diverse styles and subjects, they produce the unexpected. Lamenting the death of her brother, Medea speaks in verse but so does a gondola dying in the canals of Venice. Other monologues offer scenes of daily life sliced with care and affectionately displayed. Comic and moving, outspoken and subtle, inviting and mysterious, these inventive plays form a captivating human mosaic.
