We discussed Tony Kushner's masterpiece, "Angels in America," way back in 2002, but it has come up many times since then in other titles we've read. The latest entry in the crowded field of books on that topic is The World Only Spins Forward: The Ascent of "Angels in America," an oral history of the play by Isaac Butler and Dan Kois that came out last month.
With that in mind, I'm pleased to note that Alyssa Rosenberg's Act Four blog in the Washington Post features a thoughtful commentary on the book in which she reflects on the continuing significance of the play--which debuted about a quarter-century ago (depending on which production you use as your reference point). I warmly commend it to you all.
