Voices on the Edge

“The demons are innumerable, appear at the most inconvenient times, and create panic and terror.” —Ingmar Bergman.It’s an accepted truth that we all face personal demons and fight hidden battles. Most of us try to steer our conscious thoughts away from such things—most of us, but not Iannone. He looks at friends, acquaintances, and strangers, applies his imagination, and constructs rich new worlds and characters with vibrant inner lives. Then he shares the vision, with unflinching truth, but also human sympathy. In Voices on the Edge, he presents five plays and screenplays, written over the past forty years of his remarkably productive life. Very real people face unpleasant truths and, like most of us, come away from the encounter neither triumphant nor ruined, but certainly wiser.
