Meanwhile, Ian Ball, a black playwright, decides to go to any lengths to get his new play on Broadway. Is there a connection? Reckless Eyeballing is a farcical whodunit and biting satire on racial and sexual politics, the New York theater world, feminism, and anti-Semitism. -- Ishmael Reed is the author of over twenty books, including the recently published Reed Reader (HarperCollins). Twice nominated for the National Book Award and once for the Pulitzer, Reed has also received a MacArthur Fellowship, a Lannan Literary Award, the Pushcart Prize, and the American Civil Liberties Award, among other. -- First published by St. Martin's (1986), most recent paperback by Atheneum (1988). |
