A masterful poet of the downtrodden, his plays portray life on New York's hardscrabble streets in a manner both tender and unflinching, while continually exploring the often startling gulf between who we are and how we perceive ourselves. Gathered in this volume is his current off-Broadway hit, Our Lady of 121st Street, a comic portrait of the graduates of a Harlem Catholic school reunited at the funeral of a beloved teacher, along with his two previous plays: the philosophical jailhouse drama Jesus Hopped the A Train and In Arabia, We'd All Be Kings, an Iceman Cometh for the Giuliani era that looks at the effect of Times Square's gentrification on its less desirable inhabitants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52198602965280,"sku":"NEW0571211887","price":13.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61ugX9YbmCL.jpg?v=1786972679","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/our-lady-of-121st-street-jesus-hopped-the-a-train-in-arabia-wed-all-be-kings-0571211887","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
