Suzan-Lori Parks - Essays on the Plays and Other Works (Paperback)

The first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for drama, Suzan Lori-Parks has received international recognition for her provocative and influential works. Her plays capture the nightmares of African Americans endangered by a white establishment determined to erase their history and eradicate their dreams. This collection of twelve original essays addresses Lori-Parks' plays, their historical and philosophical roots, her novel and her screenplays, as well as a production chronology of her plays. Of particular note are an interview with Lori-Parks and another with her long-time director Liz Diamond. This text represents a valuable addition not only to the work of Lori-Parks, but to the extensive history of African American playwrighting.
