From the jacket of my hard bound copy of this book, it states, "... forces the reader to turn the pages quickly to satisfy his simple curiosity: What happens next? How does it end?". So true. This tense, violent suspense play had me doing exactly as predicted, but when I had finished, I felt as if I had been gawking at a horrendous car crash, and felt a bit guilty for my indulgence. Mark Medoff's 1973 Off-Broadway play about a violent armed assault in a New Mexican diner is indebted and infatuated with William Inge's play "Bus Stop", also concerning a diner, and the threatening violence which lurks unborn throughout Inge's play, erupts in a sensational, exploitative fury in Medoff's. The characters seem like twisted versions of Inge's characters, one even nearly shares the same name, but the inhabitants of Medoff's diner are never fully developed as real people before, during or after the violent surge. Still, there is much sympathy to be had for Medoff's strange anti-hero protagonist, Red, and the pace of the play is as swift as it would be witnessing a bank hold-up.

This was a very interesting story. It was full of suspence. I could not put it down for one second. It makes you think, and it actually gives you a chance to feel what each character is going through.
