Review
"Remarkable...a psychiatric detective story of infinite skill."
-- Walter Kerr, "The New York Times" --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
Product Description
An explosive play that took critics and audiences by storm, "Equus" is Peter Shaffer's exploration of the way modern society has destroyed our ability to feel passion. Alan Strang is a disturbed youth whose dangerous obsession with horses leads him to commit an unspeakable act of violence. As psychiatrist Martin Dysart struggles to understand the motivation for Alan's brutality, he is increasingly drawn into Alan's web and eventually forced to question his own sanity. "Equus" is a timeless classic and a cornerstone of contemporary drama that delves into the darkest recesses of human existence.

Equus, May 13 2011

This review is from: Equus: A Play (Paperback)
This story is an extremely interesting glimpse into the psyche of a child that has an unnatural fixation with horses. It sounds really odd and somewhat uncomfortable, but it is almost an addictive play to read.
