Jonathan Land Evans epub Seven Short Plays: Selected theatre pieces, 2017-2020

Published by Jonathan Land Evans via Amazon KDP, with an ISBN provided by the Bermuda National Library. This mini-compilation of short and predominantly humorous plays is a companion volume to the same author’s two Amazon KDP short-story collections, SIX OF THE BEST and THE TYPISHLY TALES, both of which offer an inexpensive, handy-size introduction to Mr. Evans’s fiction, or at least its more traditional ‘tale’ component (he also writes humorous sketches). Readers who enjoy the present book may wish also to explore his larger but still moderately-priced COLLECTED PLAYS, part of his series of hardback titles from Lulu.com – a series that also includes his quite hefty COLLECTED STORIES, the very recent MORE TALES & TRIFLES, and also the light and amusing LORDLY WADSON story collection (‘recommended’ by The U.S. Review of Books). The small-cast plays included here are variously set in the USA, in England, on a passenger liner at sea, and in the playwright’s native Bermuda; and two of them were amongst his three plays selected for performance by the Bermuda Musical & Dramatic Society as part of its near-annual ‘Famous For Fif Minutes’ playwriting festival. PRAISE FOR THE AUTHOR’S ‘COLLECTED STORIES’: An “ambitious collection” that makes for “compelling reading ... Evans is certainly an accomplished short story writer and shows no signs of slowing down any time soon.” – The U.S. Review of Books
