American Buffalo

great

I recently became interested in David Mamet and his writings, and this one easily ranks among his best. Featuring His signature searing Dialogue. His plays draw you in and you don't want to put it down. Don't be surprised if you finish this in record time.

This is a classic of contemporary drama. The dialogue crackles by, like machine gun fire, and there are some great monologues! The monologue where he complains about a woman friend begrudging him a leftover piece of toast in a diner, is hilarious!

Three male characters, none of whom are likely candidates for admission to MENSA anytime soon. A customerless junkshop is the play's only set. David Mamet exposes insights into the human condition through the pedestrian, though paradoxically engaging, dialogue of American Buffalo's characters. Men of limited intelligence and unlimited guilelessness. A classic drama that cuts to the emotional core without extraneous fuss or muss. Minimalist entertainment.

perfect brand new condition thank you

Superb play, written by one of the masters of our time (though not the most important person on Broadway - George Lane takes that win in my estimate). Book in great condition. Something I'd recommend to anyone.

To understand drama on the stage or the screen, I recommend that you read David Mamet

One of the best American plays.

Linda peça.

Le livre en lui même était parfait, sans accro ni rien du tout. Livré dans les temps. Mais l'histoire en elle-même n'a pas vraiment de sens et ce livre contient beaucoup de gros mots en anglais. Bref, ce n'est pas mon genre de livre!

Good book, good quality
