Their fates-and his-become entangled as the lines between their divergent realities become dangerously blurred. \"NO SUCH COLD THING unsettles the ground beneath our feet much as  Wallace's] characters have found it vanishing beneath their own. The characters are pitched, dreamlike, somewhere between life and death as Wallace expertly pinpoints the reality of war in the magical-surreal of dramatic imagination.\" Robert Avila, San Francisco Bay Guardian \"In their existential disorientation, Wallace's Middle East plays escape the logic, the prison and the sentimental cliches of a realistic and more sociable theatre, because their impatient narratives take shape only to disintegrate, their dramatic value heightened by the instability of the drama itself.\" Randy Gener, American Theatre\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.07 x 8.5 x 5.51 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 19, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42129858723975,"sku":"9780881456530","price":22.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/e241b0880c46b0e4359b8a3a6ccb345e.webp?v=1732606473","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/no-such-cold-thing-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
