  • Description: Book Reviews: Edited by Gina Bloom, with Megan Ammirati Suzan-Lori Parks in Person combines wonderful accessibility with nimble maneuvering among Parks's genres and voices, plays, characters, metaphors, and historical and surrealist strategies. The interviews further extend to the public Parks's "radical inclusion" (22) of watchers in her writing practice, of ideas in composing and spaces in performing her 365 Days/365 Plays cycle, and of actors and collaborators in her economical use of stage direction. Skipping only a few years here and there, Part I of the collection documents Parks's career from 1992 through 2011. Because Parks gets right to her point, the interviews read quickly.
