1951-2006 - Paperback

by Donald Freed (Author)

The story covers more than fifty years of the life and love of two artists in New York City, living in adjoining apartments. Their life and times constitute a small and memorable model of America from the victory years after World War II, down to the dubious battles of the twenty-first century. "Sparks of wit fly fast and furious ... Love story and history lesson dovetail in Freed's sharp dialogue." -Philip Brandes, Los Angeles Times "Politically charged ... [A] deeply abiding love." -L A Weekly "Donald Freed is a writer of blazing imagination, courage and insight. His work is a unique and fearless marriage of politics and art. I take my hat off to him." -Harold Pinter "Donald Freed is the most political and pertinent of all American playwrights." -Studs Terkel "We are in the presence of an outstanding dramatic artist, one of huge intelligence, political daring and theatrical imagination." -The Gate Theatre, Dublin
