    <![CDATA[How would you feel about your best friend if she suddenly did something so colossally stupid, it made you doubt the very basis of the friendship? It happens in Yasmina Reza's monster international hit, <em>Art</em>. When an art lover buys what is in essence a pure white painting for a horse-choking sum, his best friend goes ballistic.  Yet a third friend gets squeezed in the middle. Questions about the meaning of strange modern art and strange modern friendships--and how they're sometimes not all that different--fly thick in the limelight.]]>

    <![CDATA[Samuel Perlman, the elderly narrator of Yasmina Reza&#8217;s deliriously dyspeptic novel, is surrounded by happy people. His wife Nancy is thrilled to be a member of the human race. His grown son is content crisscrossing the world to &#8220;sample exotic fruit with the savages.&#8221; But Samuel himself refuses to be happy and his attempt to explain his refusal (half to his son  and half to himself) generates an epic, blasphemous, and hilarious rant against the compromises of his life. <br/><br/>Whether he is recounting his pal Lionel&#8217;s heroic battle against impotence; lamenting the loss of his great love, the irresistible Marisa Botton; or pondering the possibility of a new love in the person of one Genevieve Abramowitz, the droll, irascible Perlman is one of the great talkers of contemporary fiction. And <strong>Desolation</strong><em> </em>is one of the most dazzling performances ever written for one voice. ]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;<strong>Now in one volume, the works of &quot;the most successful international playwright of her generation&quot; (Vogue).</strong><br/><br/>Yasmina Reza's plays reflect the razor sharp wit, social commentary, and impeccable comedic timing that have earned the praise of critics throughout the world, none more so than the Tony Award-winning <em>Art</em>, an eccentric and clever play of ideas that took the American theater community by storm. In this sly critique of contemporary relationships, Reza skillfully picks apart the friendship of three men via a bowl of olives and a white-on-white painting. Now translated into more than 30 languages, <em>Art</em> continues to be performed worldwide, even as Reza's other plays have garnered similar acclaim.<em> Life x 3</em>, Reza's most recent offering, again highlights her satirical wit as two couples face off in three different versions of the dinner from hell. Praised as &quot;compact, cool and clever&quot; by Christopher Isherwood of<em> Variety</em>, Reza uses the acidic exchanges of her characters to illuminate their inner desire for love and acceptance. Also included in this edition are two earlier plays, <em>The Unexpected Man</em> and <em>Conversations After a Burial</em>. Each elucidates the startling difference between public and private life, be it in the confines of a train compartment or a country estate in the aftermath of a loved one's passing.<br/><br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[<p>An enormous success in France and a media sensation around the world, Yasmina Reza&#8217;s <em>Dawn, Dusk or Night </em>will startle English-language readers with its utterly unorthodox (and candid and witty) portrait of a man in his quest for ultimate power. In 2006, Yasmina Reza, the most celebrated playwright in France, asked Nicolas Sarkozy a simple question: Would he allow her to spend the next year with him and his team as he campaigned for the French presidency? His response was an unqualified yes. To the alarm of his advisers, and the consternation of many of her friends, who feared she was making a pact with the devil, she picked up her notebook and her pencil, and off she went.<br/><br/>It is not enough to say that she was an observer of Sarkozy&#8217;s rise to power. Rather, hers is the account of a brilliant woman of letters dancing in orbit with the most powerful man in France. Their casual exchanges, her remarkable insights, their phenomenal experience exist as a play of words and glances, framed as scenes from a headlong drama. Through the greenrooms, bus rides, and flights, along the campaign trail; in strategy sessions and at meetings with heads of state;, in all hours of the day and night, they develop a relationship that knows no parallel, bridging the arts and politics, abiding within a purely intellectual sphere without judgment, conflict, or competition.<br/><br/>The groundbreaking <em>Dawn, Dusk or Night </em>defies genre to offer a spellbinding look at the interplay between two formidable champions bound by intellect and nation.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;From the celebrated writer of Art, a scathingly hilarious commentary on vanity, professional insecurity, and the vicissitudes of marriage.<br/><br/><em>Life X 3</em> presents three versions of two couples (and an offstage six-year-old) trying to make a success of one evening despite the fact that they neither like nor respect one another. When Hubert and Inès arrive a day early to dinner at the home of Henri and Sophie, Sophie barely has time to change out of her robe and Inès is in a foul mood about a run in her stocking-from there, the evening can only go downhill. Over an improvised meal of chocolate fingers, potato chips, and wine, the couples trade insults on every social and professional level and loyalties are changed with the same rapidity that glasses of Sancerre are drained. However, as she has so astutely done in the past, Yasmina Reza uses these acidic exchanges to illuminate the innate desire for love and acceptance in us all.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;From the Author of The Tony Award-Winning <em>Art</em>, a Moving Play About Family and Memory<br/><br/>Simon Weinberg is dead. And, on a November morning, he is buried in accordance with his wishes on the Loiret family estate.  Gathered together at his funeral are six people--brothers and sisters, lovers, husbands and wives.  Mourning allows them special privilege and, for a few hours, they are isolated in another world under a lingering sun, in the shadow of the deceased.  <em>Conversations After a Burial</em> explores that ineffable moment of mourning, wherein the newly deceased is still almost palpable, the moment in which one can still maintain the memory of a breath, the intense moment between the absence and the return to every day existence, between loss and life <br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[<p>With the same élan and wit that inform her internationally acclaimed and award-winning plays, Yasmina Reza&#8217;s second novel, <em>Adam Haberberg</em>, revels in the tragicomedy of one man&#8217;s midlife crisis.  <br/><br/>While slumped on a park bench in Paris, a man is suddenly hailed by an old female classmate whom he has not seen since high school. The poor guy is, of course, a writer. Morose, panicked about his health, preoccupied with his marriage miseries and the fiasco of his recent book launch, he finds himself stranded in the desert of male middle age. And now there&#8217;s the strange business of this woman, who may or may not still be in love with him. Somehow he finds himself riding in her Jeep, riding to her place, not for any of the sensational reasons you might imagine, but because he sort of got stuck in a conversation without any chance of escape. Now he has to find his way out&#8212;and home.<br/><br/>A bitingly funny, lethally wise portrait of a hapless nonhero&#8217;s big adventure.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[ Eigentlich wollen der ehrgeizige, doch erfolglose Wissenschaftler Henry und seine Frau Sonja einen ruhigen Abend verbringen. Aber nicht nur, dass ihr kleiner Sohn ständig schreit, plötzlich klingelt es an der Tür und das Ehepaar Finidori erscheint einen Tag eher zu Besuch als angekündigt. Der Abend entwickelt sich zu einem wahren Albtraum, in dessen Mittelpunkt Diskussionen über Ehe-, Berufs- und Erziehungsprobleme stehen. Drei Mal spielt Reza die Beziehungskonflikte durch. Drei Mal verändern sich Nuancen, die die Konstellation der Figuren zueinander verschieben. Doch am Ende dieser drei Versionen bleibt alles gleich: vier betrunkene, durch Animositäten gekränkte Menschen bleiben zurück, die sich einsam und hilflos ihren Frustrationen überlassen.<p>  Seit ihrem bahnbrechenden Erfolgsstück <em>Kunst</em>, in dem drei Freunde über die Bedeutung eines weißen Gemäldes streiten, hat sich die 1957 in Paris geborene Autorin Yasmina Reza auf der internationalen Bühnenszene gleichsam unentbehrlich gemacht. Die Tochter eines usbekischen Juden und einer ungarischen Mutter legte mit <em>Eine Verzweiflung</em> gerade ihren ersten Roman vor.<p>  Rezas neues Werk <em>Drei Mal Leben</em> scheint an ihren Erfolg anzuknüpfen. Uraufgeführt wurde dieses großstädtische Boulevardstück Ende Oktober von Luc Bondy am Wiener Akademie Theater. Die Premiere mit dem genialen Schauspielerquartett Susanne Lothar, Ulrich Mühe, Andrea Clausen und Sven-Eric Bechtolf war so erfolgreich, dass die Inszenierung zum Theatertreffen im Mai 2001 nach Berlin eingeladen wurde. Diverse andere deutschsprachige Bühnen wussten sich nach Vorliegen der deutschen Übersetzung ebenfalls umgehend die Aufführungsrechte zu sichern. Das Stück besticht, weil es entlarvend zwischen Satire und Realität wechselt und einen Wiedererkennungseffekt bietet, bei dem das Lachen auch im Halse stecken bleiben kann. <em>--graenitz</em></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Ce premier scénario de Yasmina Reza est une pièce musicale diabolique. Chaque personnage assène sa partition de furieux coups d'archets, décochant à l'encontre des autres des andante intransigeants, comme pour mieux appuyer leurs travers. Qui sont-ils ? Jascha Steg, un glorieux violoncelliste venu se produire à Evian. Ses vieux parents, toujours fidèles, ainsi que l'oncle Michel. Et Anna, une violoniste de l'orchestre, dont Jascha est fou amoureux... Plus fou qu'amoureux peut-être en présence de Primo, le mari d'Anna ! Au-dessus de la symphonie s'élèvent toutefois de nombreuses trilles, comme des rires mal étouffés, de dérision, lorsqu'il s'agit des thèmes chers à l'auteur (la fuite du temps, la religion, la solitude des êtres), mais aussi de pure comédie.  <p>Depuis <em>Art</em>, la pièce qui a consacré Yasmina Reza, <em>La Traversée de l'hiver</em> (où la montagne était déjà le théâtre de conversations philosophico-mondaines) ou <em>Une désolation</em>, l'écrivain multiplie les variations sur le thème du huis clos. Elle y capte de façon saisissante les propos aigres-doux d'une bourgeoisie qu'elle connaît intimement. <em>--Laure Anciel</em> </p>]]>

    <![CDATA[ Yasmina Reza, 1957 in Paris geboren, hat sich mit ihren beiden Erfolgsstücken <em>Kunst</em> und <em>Drei Mal Leben</em> auf der Bühne gleichsam unentbehrlich gemacht. Mit <em>Eine Verzweiflung</em> legt sie ihren ersten Roman vor.<p>  Samuel ist gerade mal Anfang 70. Aber so alt, wie er sich fühlt, will er gar nicht werden. Die Maschine läuft noch leidlich, aber wozu. Das Spiel ist aus. Alle Schlachten sind geschlagen. Was bleibt, ist Resümieren.<p>  Yasmina Rezas Roman ist aus der Perspektive eben dieses alten Mannes erzählt, der sich über die Eitelkeit anderer belustigt und sich doch selbst die Haare färben lässt, aber eben nur etwas schwächer -- mit dem Ergebnis, dass ein Unterschied zu vorher nicht zu sehen ist. &quot;Kurzum, wenn du gefärbt bist, siehst du aus wie gefärbt, und wenn du nicht aussiehst wie gefärbt, bist du überhaupt nicht gefärbt.&quot;<p>  Von seinem Sohn will sich Samuel das Wort &quot;glücklich&quot; erklären lassen, voller Unverständnis für das Glück des Jungen, das dieser an fernen Badestränden zu genießen vorgibt. Aber ist er überhaupt anwesend? Oder braucht der alte Räsoneur nur einen Adressaten für seine Schimpfrede über Gott und die Menschheit, um die eigene Verzweiflung zu tarnen -- und sei es ein Phantom.<p>  Die schönste der drei Geschichten, aus denen sich <em>Eine Verzweiflung</em> zusammensetzt -- und die zarteste -- ist Samuels späte Begegnung mit Geneviève, die früher einmal die Geliebte eines Freundes war. Was die beiden da nach ihrem Tänzchen im Wohnzimmer erleben, soll hier nicht verraten werden.<p>  Yasmina Reza kann ihre Herkunft vom Theater nicht verleugnen. Warum auch? Ihr Roman liest sich wie eine Komödie, ein Stück Rollenprosa. Rezas Empathie für die Vaterfigur lässt bei aller Nähe auch ironische Distanz zu. Und den Charme ihrer Schreibkunst macht nicht zuletzt auch aus, dass die Regeln der Rollenprosa mitunter leichthin verabschiedet werden, wenn sich ein Gesprächsbeitrag, den Adressaten vergessend, unversehens zu kleinen Erzählungen verselbstständigt -- was mit Vorliebe geschieht, wenn es um Liebesgeschichten geht. Ob im Rampenlicht oder unter der Leselampe: Yasmina Reza versteht es, ihr Publikum zu verzaubern. <em>--Graenitz</em></p></p></p></p></p>]]>
