Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours. ; 5.5 x 8.2 in.; 171 pages; \nAn inner search for the meaning of life, March 7, 1999\nOnline Review: \nI have often seen or heard this play reviewed as a comedy, a black comedy, yes, but a comedy. I do not see it that way at all. Aside from the witty comments made by some of the characters. Of course maybe the comedy comes in the delivery of the lines. It seems to me that it is a deep search for Eddie from the beginning. It is near Dadaism or Existensialism; he is thouroughly disgusted with the world, women, and even his friends much of the time. The Dramatic question seems to be What will Eddie find? I enjoyed the search with him and liked the play very much .
