"A collection of five new plays by Catherine Filloux, with introductions for each play by leading scholars who provide context and commentary on the range of her drama." "LEMKIN'S HOUSE is a surreal portrait of Raphael Lemkin, the man who coined the word "genocide"; in THE BEAUTY INSIDE, Filloux places the audience in the midst of a culture war after an attempted "honor killing"; in EYES OF THE HEART, a Cambodian refugee woman suffers from psychosomatic blindness; SILENCE OF GOD depicts America's complicity through the eyes of a journalist, at the end of the Pol Pot regime; MARY AND MYRA is a play about one woman (Mary Todd Lincoln) damned by her reputation, saved by another (Myra Bradwell) who was damned into obscurity." --Book Jacket.
