David Mamet (Macmillan Modern Dramatists) - Softcover
David Mamet has been compared to such figures as Dreiser, Hemingway, Salinger, Beckett and Pinter. From a promising playwright of the late 1970s, he has become one of the most acclaimed dramatists of the 1980s, not least because of his Pulitzer Prize-winning sensation Glengarry Glen Ross. Dennis Carroll examines Mamet's influences, plays and progress, with special emphasis on three thematic areas that have elicited Mamet's 'sense of moral dismay': business, sex and communion. '...this volume may be the best thing written on the theatre of David Mamet to date.' Choice
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
