They are about guns, campaign buttons, and a cabin in the Vermont woods that stinks of wood smoke and kerosene—and about their associations of pleasure, menace, and regret.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe resulting volume may be compared to the plays that have made Mamet famous: it is finely crafted and deftly timed, and its precise language carries an enormous weight of feeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eDAVID MAMET is the author of various plays, including \u003ci\u003eAmerican Buffalo\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSexual Perversity in Chicago, Speed-the-Plow\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGlengarry Glen Ross\u003c\/i\u003e (for which he won the Pulitzer Prize), and \u003ci\u003eOleanna\u003c\/i\u003e.
