Gum by Karen Hartman
Set in a fictional fundamentalist country where chewing gum is outlawed, Gum explores the human need to tame nature and control desire. Two veiled girls stand in a walled garden, sharing a piece of gum, which serves as a metaphor for pleasure, release, desire, transgression, America, the forbidden, the secret sexual act.
'Sensual, bold, subversive playwriting. Karen Hartman is a writer to watch' - Emily Mann
'Gum is both hilarious and disturbing. It, and its companion The Mother of Modern Censorship - also included in the volume - are superb satires and also compassionate dramatic visions. Karen Hartman is fulfilling her extraordinary early promise' - Harold Bloom
