Winner of the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for Drama"A powerhouse drama. . . . Lynn Nottage's beautiful, hideous and unpretentiously important play is] a shattering, intimate journey into faraway news reports."--Linda Winer, Newsday"An intense and gripping new drama . . . the kind of new play we desperately need: well-informed and unafraid of the world's brutalities. Nottage is one of our finest playwrights, a smart, empathetic and daring storyteller who tells a story an audience won't expect."--David Cote, Time Out New YorkA rain forest bar and brothel in the brutally war-torn Congo is the setting for Lynn Nottage's extraordinary new play. The establishment's shrewd matriarch, Mama Nadi, keeps peace between customers from both sides of the civil war, as government soldiers and rebel forces alike choose from her inventory of women, many already "ruined" by rape and torture when they were pressed into prostitution. Inspired by interviews she conducted in Africa with Congo refugees, Nottage has crafted an engrossing and uncommonly human story with humor and song served alongside its postcolonial and feminist politics in the rich theatrical tradition of Bertolt Brecht's Mother Courage.Lynn Nottage's plays include Crumbs from the Table of Joy, Fabulation, and Intimate Apparel, winner of the American Theatre Critics' Steinberg New Play Award and the Francesca Primus Prize. Her plays have been widely produced, with Intimate Apparel receiving more productions than any other play in America during the 2005-2006 season.

圖書標籤: 戲劇 美國 普利策 女權 剛果 英文原版 美國文學 Lynn_Nottage
看到瞭麵對無奈處境卻不絕望的女性力量。感人然而情節還是略顯單薄。
評分之前畢業論文寫的就是這本,除瞭女權、戰爭、政治等因素,其實也應該關注作者對於酒吧的描述,它處於一個現實與虛無的交界,夜晚的酒吧裏錶麵上看起來紙醉金迷,實則潛藏緊張的氣氛,仿佛一觸即發。
評分納迪媽媽可以算是剛果的王立發+金鑲玉的綜閤體瞭,她這樣有原則的普通人散發齣的人格魅力,始終勝於那些完美的聖人。講剛果一傢酒吧式妓院在戰亂期間的愛恨情仇,以小見大,詼諧與深刻並存,盡管故事沒太大新意,但讓政治、性彆、暴力元素在劇中得到瞭充分的展現,也難怪它受到普利策的青睞。

評分非常棒的劇本,劇作傢本人也值得敬佩!為瞭寫戲劇課論文纔找來這個劇本看,非常值!
