Although not for the squeamish, the impressive debut play by Alan Bowne is utterly convincing.\" -Variety \"A harrowing drama - the world drawn by Bowne with such nose-rubbing honesty is a reality we all know exists.\" -New York Post \"Simply dazzling, a sharply focused nether world, full of danger and surpassing sadness. These boys live on the bitter edge with survival a matter of day and night doubt. They're eerie men-children thrust from pubescence into a premature sort of middle age. There isn't room in their world for the conventional emotions.\" -Gannett Newspapers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 82\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.17 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 08, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42129857708167,"sku":"9780881456752","price":18.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/31ff621a80f50d84f482b1270dfed9ff.webp?v=1732606465","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/forty-deuce-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
