Our Fractured Togetherness: The Political Realism of Lynn Nottage

Our Fractured Togetherness: The Political Realism of Lynn Nottage
(Joan Marcus)

“Given the depth and severity of the divisions displayed in Sweat, we are led to wonder if healing is even possible. But as a ‘doctor of American democracy,’ [Lynn] Nottage not only offers troubling diagnoses of our diseases but also prescribes remedies.”

Timeless reading in a fleeting world.
