Overview
The collection opens with the now classic 'Moonchildren,
' described by Walter Kerr as 'the definitive play' about the young
people of the '60s, a generation that no longer believes in traditional
values but has not yet found values of its own. 'Fishing, ' a sort of
unofficial sequel to 'Moonchildren, ' takes another look at these young
people at a transitional point in their lives--over thirty--as they are
trying to learn to trust each other and themselves. 'At Home' and
'Abroad, ' two linked one-act plays, delve into the breakup of a

'moonchildren' grown up, deals with two lovers' discovery, after a
decade, that love is not enough
