August Wilson's Two Trains Running - (Paperback)

The 1960s chapter of the Pulitzer Prize winning playwright's decade by decade saga of ordinary African Americans in this turbulent century is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the hopes, dreams, and struggles of an era.

Set in Memphis Lee's coffee shop in a Pittsburgh neighborhood on the brink of economic development, the book follows the lives of six unique characters: a local sage, an elderly man with secrets to share, an ex-con, a numbers runner, a laconic waitress, and a retarded man who was cheated out of a ham.

Through Chekhovian obliqueness, the author reveals simple truths about life, love, and the human condition.

With its focus on the everyday struggles and triumphs of ordinary people, this book is a powerful reminder of the resilience and strength of the African American community in the face of adversity.
