Equus by Peter Shaffer

FIRST U.S. PAPERBACK PRINTING [1975] BARD BOOKS

Beautiful near mint paperback 1st.

 Clean, tight and seemingly unread copy with some mild shelf wear. 


In "Equus," which took critics and public alike by storm and has gone on to become a modern classic, Peter Shaffer depicts the story of a deranged youth who blinds six horses with a spike. Through a psychiatrist's analysis of the events, Shaffer creates a chilling portrait of how materialism and convenience have killed our capacity for worship and passion and, consequently, our capacity for pain. Rarely has a playwrite created an atmosphere and situation that so harshly pinpoint the spiritual and mental decay of modern man.
