Next Thursday on KCRW's Bookworm: Wallace Shawn, author of Essays (Haymarket Books, $18.95, 9781608460021/1608460029) and Grasses of a Thousand Colors (Theatre Communications Group, $13.95, 9781559363457/1559363452).
As the show put it: "Wallace Shawn's newest play intermingles fact and
fantasy in such a bizarre and original way that one would have to see
(or even read) the play two or three times to get things (relatively)
straight. Shawn discusses innovative theater in relation to his
political beliefs as expressed in his new collection of essays."
