Summary:	"Delve into darkness with "Metastasis and Other Plays", a new collection of Gordon Pengilly's award-winning dramas that highlight the core of human tragedy, paranoia, and violence. With a mix of dark humor and palpable desperation, Pengilly creates striking characters who, while essentially good, are unable to cope with their circumstances and commit reckless acts as a result. True to the tendency of human nature, these characters attempt to redeem themselves - but often discover it's too late."--BOOK JACKET.
