Think of a Garden and Other Plays

John Kneubuhl

4.9/5 (11785 ratings)

Description:Unlike much of Kneubuhl's earlier work, these plays are touchingly personal in their exploration of alienation and cultural identity. Think of a Garden, the first play of the trilogy and the last written before the playwright's death in 1992, has been called the most Samoan of Kneubuhl's plays - a candid look at the writer's bicultural upbringing that artfully weaves together family memory, history, and mysticism. In Mele Kanikau: A Pageant, Kneubuhl once again uses the supernatural to comment on the fragile state of a divided culture - that of Hawaiians. In A Play: A Play, the most structurally complex of the plays and Kneubuhl's most successful attempt at comedy, what begins as a Cowardesque farce ends in an unsettling portrayal of a man struggling to come to terms with his Hawaiian heritage.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
