The Collected Works of Paddy Chayefsky: The Stage Plays Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this collection of Chayevsky plays in order to get my hands on THE LATENT HETEROSEXUAL, because I'm in the process of revising my will, and I remembered the playwright's mordant take on lawyers, accountants, trusts, taxes--and it's as good as I remembered it.(The play never made Broadway, even with Zero Mostel in the lead; Paddy had sworn off Broadway for good and opened it in Dallas.I read a version printed in ESQUIRE.)Now I'm working through the other plays in this volume.Though working is the wrong word.I'm being pulled into them by Chayesvky's brilliance and clarity of language.And also by his vision of the human beings who made up his world, his incredible empathy and sympathy for them, as well as his virulent scorn at their failures of moral courage.Turn to any page in the volume to hear the unique, powerful, brilliant, funny voice of Paddy Chayevsky, a writer we need now more than ever!
