“Book Descriptions: From the brawny castles of 16th-century France, to the rugged plains of 1960s Idaho, to the strapping palaces of 1920s India, all hail the remarkable stories of the Great Men—as told by their whiny, witchy, vapid, vengeful, jealous wives. In this kaleidoscopic, time-hopping, comic ensemble piece, Jaclyn Backhaus pushes past patriarchal cliché to reach an ecstatic breakthrough, untethering stories and history—and language itself—from the visions made by men. A play about women taking control of their narratives with the help of each other, their feeling, and a giant fish.” DRIVE
