  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far.

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing.

  • Singing with Jesus
    Kurt C. Schaefer / Kurt CSchaefer
    We shouldn’t be too surprised if Jesus, the Son of David, was also a song writer. The Lord’s Prayer is a psalm, and reading the prayer as a psalm opens up its meaning. To read the Lord’s Prayer as a psalm, you have to be able to read a psalm as a psalm. So this book is first of all an adventure in reading the Bible’s poetry--the psalms, of course, but also much of the prophets’...
