Description du livre Softcover. Etat : New. <div>Christopher Durang has been called "Jonathan Swift's nicer, younger brother" (<i>The New York Observer</i>). His plays are known for containing hilarity at every turn and revealing social commentary in every corner. Now collected in <i>Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them and Other Political Plays</i> are Durang's most revealing political and social satires.<br /><br /><i>Why Torture Is Wrong, and the People Who Love Them</i> tells the story of a young woman in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father's hobby of butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow government? Does her mother go to the theater frequently to seek mental escape, or is she just insane? Add in a minister who directs porno, and a ladylike operative whose underwear just won't stay up, and this black comedy will make us laugh all the way to the waterboarding room.<br /><br />[Durang?s] funniest play in years. A play that equals his early hits.? -John Simon, Bloomberg<br /><br />Comedic napalm, something like a cross between The Marriage of Bette and Boo and Dr. Strangelove. Durang has now joined ranks with Dario Fo. Durang is getting a lot off his chest, and off ours. . . unnervingly true and cathartic." -Bob Verini, <i>Variety</i></div> N° de réf. du vendeur DADAX0822224011
