Author David Mamet
The paly is set in John's rooms in a University in England in the very recent past.I Oleanna, "John and Carol" go to it with hand to hand combat that amounts to a primal struggle for power. As usual with Mamet, the vehicle for that combat is cracling, highly skilled distilled dialogue, unencumbered bt literary frills or phoney theatrical ones.
