Mizlansky/Zilinsky sounds like it would be good. Nathan lane and Paul Sand are 2 well-respected actors who you'd think would create something to look forward to. But instead, the series is crude, rude, and very unfunny. Other then a few funny antics from Nathan Lane, including some lines, the show is very bland and leads to a road of nowhere.

Absolutely hilarious play, with great acting by a terrific cast. The plot is funny, and the dialogue is funnier. What made this very special for me was the format -- a "live" audio theater performance. It was like being on Broadway. A great experience.

The superb cast bringing Jon Baitz' dark comedy of sleazy Hollywood producer Davis Mizlansky and his problems with ex-spouses, colleagues, customers, and the IRS to life includes Nathan Lane, Paul Sand, Julie Kavner, Samantha, Harry Shearer, Richard Masur; Rob Morrow, Grant Shaud, Kurtwood Smith, and Robert Walden. Ably directed by Ron West, this superbly produced, 106 minute, two cassette unabridged comedy was recorded before a live audience and offers a terrific listening experience enhanced with a full course of sound effects. Mizlansky/Zilinsky will prove a popular and entertaining addition to any personal, drama school, or community library audiobook/audioplay collection.

Short book, if you are a fan of Morgaine you will enjoy this short and not too deep story, from her perspective. Easy reading with some interesting insights

This took a long time to get me interested; I even put it down and read two books and then tried again.

I had a feeling throughout that Harry and the author were one and the same. Almost like Harry didn't have to be fully fleshed out, as a character, in order for the author to understand him. On the other hand, the rest of the characters were pretty weak too.

I liked Harry, as much as he was, and Catherine was ok, but probably not someone I'd seek out. Carter was dreadful. I couldn't stand the grubby, grabby pretender that he seemed to be. When he behaved well, I was surprised. When he behaved as he normally did, I was repelled. The kids were minor characters, and not very real or true. The relationships to each other were thin and lacking in depth.

Gardeners might like Catherine's garden and cooks might like her meals. Wood choppers will wonder why she was chopping wood on the concrete floor of her barn and why she didn't dislocate her shoulder when she hit the floor with her axe. Liberals will laugh to hear themselves discussed so blatently negatively. Women will wonder about some people's attitudes toward sex.

-------- ... then catherine came in, reminding him that sometimes you make the trip, that's all; you just, sometimes, GO there. Because she stood in a doorway, tough-looking in her jeans and sandals and old chambray shirt - he thought he remembered its blueness on the clothesline - with her hair cut shorter . . .

frederic busch, professor of literature, includes every lit-school technique to get you/me to identify with harry or catherine...

i, of course, identified with harry: slightly porky, writer, reflective, not adolescent, still lustful . . . still romantic . . .

"harry &..." echoes american family and speech as faithfully as "Plainsong" (Haruf) chants the midwest . . .

heartbreaking/heartfilling !
