false 72136 5 <div>From the celebrated writer of Art, a scathingly hilarious commentary on vanity, professional insecurity, and the vicissitudes of marriage.<br><br><i>Life X 3</i> 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></div> 820112 2001 Life X 3 total:19|5:4|4:8|3:4|2:3|1:0| 19 70 23 0 4 0 false false Sat Nov 28 04:14:26 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 28 04:14:26 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Nov 18 22:45:53 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 18 22:45:53 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Sep 21 17:41:47 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 21 17:42:08 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sat Sep 05 03:54:58 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 03:54:58 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Jul 15 22:41:14 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 15 22:41:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu May 28 05:25:13 -0700 2009 Thu May 28 05:25:18 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun May 24 14:45:49 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 12:18:25 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 14:45:49 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu May 14 05:45:49 -0700 2009 Thu May 14 05:45:49 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 13 15:02:15 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 15:02:27 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Apr 20 11:12:56 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 11:13:00 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Nov 20 09:10:27 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 20 09:10:27 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Nov 20 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 20 09:03:06 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 20 09:08:29 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Sep 18 21:52:38 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 18 21:52:47 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat May 03 20:00:55 -0700 2008 Sat May 03 20:00:55 -0700 2008 2 0 false false Tue Oct 09 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Mar 24 12:13:26 -0700 2008 Mon Mar 24 12:13:45 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Jan 25 19:40:07 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 19:40:07 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Sep 21 13:43:16 -0700 2007 Fri Sep 21 13:43:16 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Wed Aug 08 20:33:02 -0700 2007 Wed Aug 08 20:33:02 -0700 2007 2 0 false false Sun Jul 15 12:21:17 -0700 2007 Sun Jul 15 12:21:17 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Sat Apr 21 13:06:50 -0700 2007 Sat Apr 21 13:06:50 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=72136
