Overview
A critical and popular success, this masterfully constructed work brings
searing intensity and rare theatrical excitement to its probing, yet
sharply humorous study of love, hate and the dying myths of the Old
West. Fool for Love is accompanied in this volume by The Sad Lament of Pecos
Bill on the Eve of Killing his Wife, a comic operetta by Sam Shepard and
Catherine Stone, which takes an irreverent view of American heroes and
heroics.
