The Laughing String collects author and playwright Stephen Evans' thoughts on writing and the writing life: what inspires him, what confuses him, and what makes him smile.
The title comes from a poem by W. B. Yeats:
Bred to a harder thing
Than Triumph, turn away
And like a laughing string
Whereon mad fingers play
Amid a place of stone,
Be secret and exult,
Because of all things known
That is most difficult.
This new edition includes an appendix containing the author's undergraduate thesis entitled A Phenomenology of Art.
