| book description |
From the acclaimed playwright and author of Glengarry Glen Ross and American Buffalo comes Some Recollections of St. Ives, a masterful novel that masquerades as a memoir of the fictional Charles Hollis, a man whose life spanned continents, conflicts, and a decades-long career at one of America’s most storied institutions—the St. Ives School. Written in the final years of Hollis’s life, Some Recollections of St. Ives offers a candid yet poignant reflection on his forty years at the school. Through the allegorical tales woven into Hollis’s recollections, Mamet delivers a sharp, incisive examination of an isolated institution and, by extension, society as a whole. Once again, Mamet proves himself a master of language, balancing history’s weight on our culture with profound emotional depth. With wit and keen insight, he explores the complexities of human nature and the undercurrents of an American institution.
