Essays by Wallace Shawn
With his distinctive brand of humour and insight, acclaimed playwright and beloved actor Wallace Shawn takes his readers on a revelatory journey through high art, war, culture, politics and privilege with his first non-fiction collection, which received immense critical acclaim when published in hardback in 2009. The personal and the political become one. Shawn often focuses on contradictions, even when unpleasant, and finds humour in the political and personal challenges of everyday life.
Wallace Shawn is an Obie Awardwinning playwright and a noted stage and screen actor. His plays The Designated Mourner and The Fever have recently been produced as films, and his translation of Threepenny Opera was recently performed on Broadway. He is co-author of My Dinner with Andre and the author of The Fever, Aunt Dan and Lemon, and Grasses of a Thousand Colors, among other works.
