David Mamet's classic work on the power and importance of drama, "Three Uses of the Knife," has been published in the Bloomsbury Revelations series. In this short but arresting series of essays, Mamet explains the necessity, purpose, and demands of drama. A celebration of the ties that bind art to life, "Three Uses of the Knife" is an enthralling read for anyone who has sat anxiously waiting for the lights to go up on Act 1. In three tightly woven essays of characteristic force and resonance, Mamet speaks about the connection of art to life, language to power, imagination to survival, public spectacle to private script. Self-assured and filled with autobiographical touches, "Three Uses of the Knife" is a call to art and arms, a manifesto that reminds us of the singular power of the theatre to keep us sane, whole, and human.
