Hardback. Zustand: Good. David Lindsay, researching old records to learn details of the life of his ancestor, Richard More, soon found himself in the position of the Sorcerer's Apprentice - wherever he looked for one item, ten more appeared. What he found illuminated not only More's own life but painted a clear and satisfying picture of the way the First Comers, Saints, and Strangers alike, set off for the new land, suffered the voyage on the Mayflower (where many died), and put down their roots to thrive on America's northeastern shore. From the story, Richard emerges as a man of questionable morals, much enterprise, and a good deal of old-fashioned pluck, a combination that could get him into trouble - and often did. He lived to father several children, to see, near the end of his life, a friend hung as a witch in Salem, and to be read out of the church for unseemly behaviour. MAYFLOWER BASTARD lets readers see history in a new light by turning an important episode into a personal experience.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted a drama that's not just a departure but a revelation--an intensely emotional examination of grief, laced with wit, insightfulness, compassion and searing honesty. -David Rooney, Variety A beautifully observed new play blessed with David Lindsay-Abaire's customary grace and wit. -Ben Brantley, New York Times With Rabbit Hole, David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted the most serious, simply told work of his career--a painstakingly beautiful, dramatically resourceful, exquisitely human new play. -Backstage A story of loss, heartbreak and forgiveness--told through daily moments and emotional hurdles--as a family moves on after the accidental death of their 4-year-old. After a critically acclaimed Broadway premier and successful film adaptation (starring Nicole Kidman, Aaron Eckhart, and Diane West), Rabbit Hole has been hailed as an artistic breakthrough for the highly regarded Lindsay-Abaire. A drama of what comes after tragedy, it captures the awkwardness and pain of thinking people faced with an unthinkable situation--and eventually, their capacity for survival. -USA Today David Lindsay-Abaire is the Pulitzer-winning author of Rabbit Hole, which was made into a feature film. He is the author of Good People, Fuddy Meers, Wonder of the World, A Devil Inside and Kimberly Akimbo, as well as the book and lyrics to Shrek the Musical.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A penetrating drama laced with the signature humour of the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Rabbit Hole. Set in Boston's Southie neighbourhood, where a night on the town means a few rounds of bingo, where this month's paycheck covers last month's bills, we meet Margaret Walsh, who is facing eviction and is scrambling to catch a break. When a friend from the old neighbourhood, who is now very successful, moves back to town, Margaret hopes he may be the ticket to turning her life around.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. As tough as it is tender, and shot through with aching authenticity, Good People is that rare play that is timeless and keyed into a specific moment of American life, without the need to grasp for topicality.Bringing the same clear-eyed emotional observation that distinguished his Pulitzer Prize-winner Rabbit Hole, Lindsay-Abaire has crafted another penetrating drama about deeply relatable issues. -David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter Searing, superbly written.this is a well-made play, in the best sense of the term. -Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune If Good People isn't a hit for Manhattan Theatre Club, there is no justice in the land. Lindsay-Abaire pays his respects to his old South Boston neighborhood with this tough and tender play about the insurmountable class divide between those who make it out of this blue-collar Irish neighborhood and those who find themselves left behind. -Marilyn Stasio, Variety Substantial, tender yet often howlingly funny.delectably uncomfortable to sit through. I'd call it a smart, painful social comedy with a head and a heart. -Dominic Maxwell, The Times (UK) With his signature humor, Lindsay-Abaire explores the struggles, shifting loyalties and unshakeable hopes that come with having next to nothing in America.
