Plays on Words

Plays on Words collects for the first time six satirical plays, five never before published, written in the early 1980s by American essayist, novelist, playwright, poet, humorist, and surrealist Marvin Cohen. Also included are two short theater-related pieces ("How He/She Dramatizes His/Her Life" and "A Complaint as a Theatre Goer"), an excerpt from a 1981 interview, and a new brief preface written by Cohen for this collection.
