A librarian unpacks his lovely evidences and gives a lecture about his travels.
His obsession to collect the fine on a library book returned after 123 years
turns into a blissfully ludicrous vision quest, outrageously funny, madly literate...
The clues surface and mount, tease and taunt, and reveal a mystery that transcends the ages.
“...This curiously funny drama of life’s most curious stuff is not to be missed.”—New York Times
“...one of a handful of great plays written in the last five years...
it’s an astonishingly beautiful piece of writing...”—Seattle Weekly
“...a stunner, a Tom Stoppard look-alike if ever there was one...
with a spiritual sensitivity that extends the Librarian’s search for an alternate truth to Everyman.”—LA Times
“...stunningly funny, moving and...required viewing...”—Post and Courier, Charleston
