<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An engrossing new play from the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of <i>August: Osage County.</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"A deeply moving new play from Tracy Letts." --Chris Jones, <i>Chicago Tribune</i> <p/>Known for his complex portrayals of the human psyche, Tracy Letts expands what at first appears to be an intimate snapshot of one woman's ordinary life into a grand and elaborate portrait play. In a series of elegant, nonchronological scenes spanning the years from 1946 to 2015, the play hopscotches through Mary Page Marlowe's quiet existence as an accountant from Ohio--complicating notions of what it means to lead a "simple life."<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Exquisite. . . Beautiful and affecting, like flipping through a friend's photo album in no particular order, finding some faces familiar, others unexpected. . . A haunting, elliptical drama about the evolutions, reversals and resurrections in a woman's life. . . It illuminates, movingly, how youthful ideals wither, how little of life can truly be foreseen, how provisional all our plans are in a world where choice and chance are always in tension." --Charles Isherwood, <em>New York Times</em> <p/>"Tracy Letts is a poet of the ordinary, a playwright who writes about commonplace lives in uncommon ways. . . You'll be enthralled to watch Mary's life unfold, for it is described in a manner so clear and true that you cannot doubt its significance. <em>Mary Page Marlowe</em> is the most purely beautiful play that Mr. Letts has given us." --Terry Teachout, <em>Wall Street Journal</em> <p/>"This is Letts in contemplative mode, theatrically plumbing large questions like 'what is a person?' and, therefore, 'what is a life?'. . . Intensely thoughtful. . . the work has depth and an elegant potency. . . <em>Mary Page Marlowe</em> evokes a complex response that is both heady and emotional." --Steven Oxman, <em>Variety</em><br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Tracy Letts is a playwright, actor and resident company member of Steppenwolf Theatre Company. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for <i>August: Osage County.</i>
