6/27/2023 0 Comments The testament of mary broadway![]() "Mary, now an aging widow, is kept in solitary confinement by men eager to ensure that her account of her son's life matches the official version. Her testament, ironically yet lovingly told, is a defiance of authority (this time, the Apostles), poignantly mirroring Jesus' own rebel story. In Colm Toibin's hands, Mary The Icon becomes a "tragic heroine with the relentless eloquence of Electra or Medea or Antigone". A spare account of (what is, in effect and in its effects) The Gospel According To Mary. Presents Colm Toibin's "The Testament of Mary". Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. The first appearance of the title in the United States. One of the most brilliant novels of our time. A pristine copy of "The Testament of Mary" with a copy of its play adaptation-version's Broadway Program Material, both signed by Colm Toibin. New York City, NY: Scribner & Company, 2012.
