Publisher's Synopsis
TWO SEPTEMBER is set in post-WWII Vietnam, when Ho Chi Minh had visions of a free country and a newly formed House UnAmerican Affairs Committee blacklisted a young, female American writer who believed in truth, justice, and a humane social order. In 2003, The Village Voice gave a Lifetime Achievement Award to Mac Wellman: "... [he] has long situated himself on the frontier of new forms. He's not only an experimental dramatist of the first rank, but also an eloquent champion of the avant-garde ... Like Beckett's characters, the figures in his work inhabit both a purely theatrical world and a space that will not let you forget the social realities compounding the existential mystery."
