About this title

Synopsis:

In a series of autobiographical essays, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright reminisces about his Chicago youth, his early years in New York, the actors with whom he has worked, and his many travels

Review:

"Enormous powers of observation...he has an ear for language."

-- LA Weekly

"A very worthwhile collection...Mamet walks a line between provocation and enticement, and its precariousness almost always compels attention."

-- Newsday

"A delight...there is a lean, masculine quality to his essays."

-- Baltimore Sun
