Description
"Stretching My Mind collects for the first time the author's writings on theater, literature, the visual arts, and the political and cultural battlegrounds that have defined our times. Albee also explores charged topics such as government repression, censorship in the arts, and cultural literacy. On a more intimate level, Albee writes about his early home life, discusses in depth his body of work, and shares his perceptive worldviews."--Jacket.
First Sentence
WITH THE EXCEPTION of a three-act sex farce I composed when I was twelve-the action of which occurred aboard an ocean liner, the characters of which were, for the most part, English gentry, and the title of which was, for some reason that escapes me now, Aliqueen-with the exception of that, The Zoo Story (1958), The Death of Bessie Smith, and The Sandbox (both 1959), are my first three plays.
