| Neil Simon Rewrites: A Memoir This moving account covers the
period between the composition of Simon's first play, Come Blow Your Horn, and
the loss of his first wife, Joan, and focuses on the relationship between Simon's writing
and his life. Highly recommended for anyone who has seen any of Simon's plays or movies,
or appreciates good writing, or is interested in the precarious relationship between an
artist's life and his work. Read a Review of this

Neil Simon Monologues: Speeches from the works of
America's Foremost Playwright This is the first authorized collection
of monologues from Simon's plays and the most significant contribution to the drama genre
in the past twenty-five years. As a scene-study book it is invaluable to actors at all
levels. This definitive publication contains speeches for men and women from Come Blow
Your Horn through Jake's Women. Each play is comprehensively synopsized, and
an in-depth exposition establishing setting and intent precedes each speech. With an
introduction by Jack Lemmon. published:
