Résumé

SAM SHEPARDMotel Chronicles and Hawk MoonSam Shepard is now widely recognized as the greatest American playwright of his generation. Here, for the first time, is a new collection of some of his most private and autobiographical fiction and poetry, much of it the inspiration for his recent award-winning film, Paris, Texas.'He is the greatest US playwright of his generation and since 1964 he has mapped out a huge mythic territory ... like Whitman, his is vast and contains multitudes, his plays soar over the empty tracts of the Midwest, celebrate the space, energy and naïve optimism of the new-found lands.' Time Out'Future generations will get a sharp-toothed profile of life in the US for the past decade and a half from the works of Sam Shepard.' Time'His plays are a form of exorcism, magical, sometimes surreal rituals which grapple with the demonic forces in the American landscape.'
