The debut collection of a celebrated new American playwright.
Baker may just have the subtlest way with exposition of anyone writing for the theater today...There is something distinctly Chekhovian in the way her writing accrues weight and meaning simply through compassionate, truthful observation. --Charles Isherwood, New York Times
Baker has a soft spot for the abandoned, the discarded, the hard luck case...Her heartbreaking works of staggering focus have actually rescued realism from the aesthetic scrap heap --Helen Shaw, Time Out New York
The debut play collection of Annie Baker includes The Aliens: an exploration of friendship and music in the lives of three misfits behind a coffee shop; Circle Mirror Transformation: a meditation on life within the rhythms of an adult drama class; Nocturama: A dark comedy in which a grown son returns home to live with his mother and stepfather; and Body Awareness: a close look at a nontraditional family dealing with an unexpected guest.
