"The greatest American playwright of his generation" (New York Magazine) Winner of the New York Drama Critics Award as the best play of the year. A Lie of the Mind is described by its author as a "love ballad...a little legend about love". Frank Rich of the New York Times described it as "a variously rending and hilarious reverie about parents and sons and husbands and wives, all blending into mythic wildernes..." The play was revived by the Donmar Warehouse in 2001.
