Books by John Patrick Shanley

A compassionate and delightful romantic comedy from Pulitzer Prize, Tony and Oscar-winning dramatist John Patrick Shanley, author of Doubt.

The screenplays of award-winning playwright John Patrick Shanley have earned him a reputation as a gifted writer with a great range and imagination. His movies Moonstruck, Five Corners, and Joe Versus the Volcano have starred such Hollywood luminaries as Cher—who took home an Oscar for her performance in Moonstruck—Nicolas Cage, Jodie Foster, John Turturro, Meg Ryan, and Tom Hanks. This collection showcases Shanley’s talent for creating dialogue that is true to his characters and his ability to tell their stories in eccentric and intensely humorous situations.

Winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
