Chicago Public Library
Join our bi-monthly book club where we read plays and discuss theater as literature. This time, we’ll be reading: M. Butterfly by David Henry Hwang. When 'M. Butterfly' premiered in 1988, its remarkable story of international espionage and personal betrayal solidified its status as a modern classic. Based on the real-life affair between a French diplomat and a mysterious Chinese opera singer, it blurred the boundaries between male and female, East and West. -from the publisher Books are available to check out behind the circulation desk at the Bucktown-Wicker Park Branch, while supplies last.
