About the Book

When Christine Zidar returns home from the mental institution where she has spent most of her life, she becomes overwhelmed by hallucinations of those who died trying to reach the summit of Mount Everest. She returns to her reclusive mother and a house with years of hoarded trash. She learns they are about to be evicted due to years of health code violations. She retreats into the recesses of her mind and finds the counsel of her alter ego, Leandra, who urges her into a life of prostitution, in hopes of bribing city officials to drop the proceedings. As the plan fails, Christine and Leandra seek refuge on the frozen slopes of Everest.
About the Author: Richard S. Bailey is the recipient of numerous press awards for writing, directing, producing, acting and designing theatre in the United States and Europe. His published plays include a deconstruction of the Antigone myth, Tiresias Lies: The Insidious Plot of the Men with No Left Shoe; a sci-fi excursion into the story of Abraham and Isaac with an extended introductory monologue, Deus Ex Machina and The Hands of the Beholder, which was produced to excellent press in Los Angeles and Berkeley; Window Pieces: A Collection of Reflections and Points of View; and two volumes of Children's Theatre Story Books. His yet to be published translation of Growing Absurd: Six Short Plays by Jean Tardieu, the first of the seminal absurdist's works to be translated into the American genre, has been performed and is being studied in American colleges and universities. He was personally invited to work with Nobel Laureate Samuel Beckett at the West Berlin Academy of Art in 1977. At Beckett's request, he waited thirty years before performing Krapp's Last Tape as part of his production of Shuffle, Shuffle, Step: Three Short Plays by Samuel Beckett, in Los Angeles, 2007. He is a former Associate Director of the Los Angeles Theatre Center and Los Angeles Actors' Theatre, Producing Director of the San Quentin Drama Workshop, and Producer of the feature film Cock & Bull Story, based on the British play. His comic, scifi novel Off On A Tangent is currently available online.
