Winner of the 1984 Pulitzer Prize, David Mamet's scalding
comedy is about small-time, cutthroat real estate salesmen trying
to grind out a living by pushing plots of land on reluctant buyers
in a never-ending scramble for their fair share of the American
dream. Here is Mamet at his very best, writing with brutal power
about the tough life of tough characters who cajole, connive,
wheedle, and wheel and deal for a piece of the action--where
closing a sale can mean a brand new Cadillac but losing one can
mean losing it all. This masterpiece of American drama is now a
major motion picture starring Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Alan Arkin,
Alec Baldwin, Jonathan Pryce, Ed Harris, and Kevin Spacey.
"The best new American play of the season. Wonderfully funny...a play to see, remember and cherish." -Clive Barnes, "New York Post" "The most exciting American play in years." -Howard Kissel, "Women's Wear Daily" "One of his best plays. Crackling tension...ferocious comedy and drama. A top American playwright in bristling form." -Frank Rich, "The New York Times"
