Hey guys!
I'm looking for some new reads - I like biographies, like plays, but haven't found anything tickling my fancy lately.
Hilary's new book isn't well rated on amazon, so I have strayed away. Robin Robert's book was pure inspiration and had me bawling as I read along.
Now I was wondering if anyone had some good reads - as far as plays, I like Ibsen (A Doll's House), Tennessee Williams (Glass Menagerie, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Streetcar Named Desire), Death of a Salesman.
So... given my preferences... any ideas?
