He Brought Her Heart Back in a Box and Other Plays

Adrienne Kennedy,

About this book

One of the American theater’s greatest and least compromising experimentalists…Her dramas are sites of living history, where personal stories of racism’s unhealed wounds mingle with dark tales thieved from the Brothers Grimm and 1940s Hollywood.—Alexis Soloski, New York Times

In the titular play of this remarkable collection, Adrienne Kennedy journeys into Georgia and New York City in the 1940s to lay bare the devastating effects of segregation and its aftermath. He Brought Her Heart Back in a Box is the story of a doomed interracial love affair unfolds through fragmented pieces—letters, recollections from family members, songs from the time—to present a multifaceted view of our cultural history that resists simple interpretation. This volume also includes Etta and Ella on the Upper West Side and Mom, How Did You Meet The Beatles?, cowritten with her son Adam P. Kennedy.
