Martin Amis has created a thoroughly unlikable hero, John Self--movie producer, drunk, drugged exploiter of woman--and managed to make him into a sympathetic narrator. In addition to pursuing his vices with enthusiasm, Self spends his time roaming New York in order to find funding and actors for his latest epic and wondering whether his girlfriend back in London is being faithful.

Citizen Tom Paine
'Among Howard Fast's historical fiction, Citizen Tom Paine - one of America's all-time best-sellers - occupies a special place, for it restored to a generation of readers the vision of Paine's revolutionary passion as the authentic roots of our national beginnings. Fast gives us'a vivid picture of Paine's mode of writing, idiosyncrasies, and character - generous, nobly unselfish, moody, often dirty, frequently drunken, a revolutionist by avocation' (Library Journal)

In this follow-up to their groundbreaking collectionTake Ten, editors Eric Lane and Nina Shengold have put together a veritable bonfire of talent.Take Ten II: More 10-Minute Playsprovides a fast-track tour of the current theatrical landscape, from the slapstick ingenuity of David Ives’Arabian Nights to the searing tension of Diana Son’s 9/11 dramaThe Moon, Please, to Susan Miller’s luminous fableThe Grand Design. This remarkably diverse anthology includes thirty-five short plays by such major American playwrights as Christopher Durang, Warren Leight, Romulus Linney and Donald Margulies, alongside a host of exciting new voices.Actors, directors, producers and teachers will findTake Ten II an invaluable source of meaty roles for people of every age, ethnicity and gender; lovers of theatre will find it a richly satisfying read.
