About This Item
New York:: Plume,, (1987). Near fine.. Trade paperback. Expanded Twenty-fifth Anniversary edition, one which restores the cuts made to the original play. Includes a new introduction by Robert Nerniroff who comments "This is the most complete edition of A Raisin in the Sun ever published. Like the American Playhouse production for television, it restores to the play two scenes unknown to the general public, and a number of other key scenes and passages staged for the first time in twenty-fifth anniversary revivals and, most notably, the Roundabout Theatre's Kennedy Center production on which the television picture is based. . . Produced in 1959, the play presaged the revolution in black and women's consciousness that exploded in the years following the playwright's death in 1965 to ineradicably alter the social fabric and consciousness of the nation and the world." Also includes critical essays by Amiri Baraka (LeRoi Jones), Frank Rich and John Braine. xix, 340 pp.
