So apparently there's a book of James Purdy's selected plays coming out in April. Holy shit but does that make me happy. I mean, I thought we'd seen the last of any Purdy related material with Moe's Villa, but some kind soul in the publishing industry has managed to scrape this together. Unfortunately, A Day After the Fair isn't included, but, to my utter surprise and delight, Ruthanna Elder is. I didn't even know Purdy had made it into a play! This should be really good, and a welcome respite from all the dull reading I've had to endure for school lately. Now if only Donaldson would come out with the next Covenant book . . .
books,
