Betrayed - Francine Pascal - Paperback

Based on the journalist-playwrights original article in The New Yorker, Betrayed is the story of three young Iraqi translators who risk everything for America´s promise of freedom while their country collapses around them. The clarity of the writing, the urgency of the story being told give the play a sharp dramatic impact and a plain-spoken beauty. Painful human experience is presented here as just that. Nothing else is necessary to awaken sympathy, despair and awareness of a grave moral
