About this audiobook
Comedy and pathos mingle brilliantly in Neil Simon’s portrait of a widowed New York novelist who fears he’ll never love again and has no interest in dating. Neither does smart, attractive Jennie Malone, who has just returned from getting a Mexican divorce. A grudging five-minute meeting between them blossoms into a passionate, witty romance–until they decide to marry. A BBC co-production.
An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring David Dukes, Sharon Gless, Gates McFadden and Grant Shaud.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was a GREAT play! I was amazed by the dialogue, the characters, the careful social cues, and the ending- which was completely magnificent and surprising in its own right. This was a tour-de-force for Simon and I intend on reading more plays by this fine playwright. 5 stars- fully deserved!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Some witty dialog but drastically poor work on the characters that go from an act one of too good to be true, to act two of too stupid to live, but all's well that ends well. I'm beginning to think that witty New Yorkers don't intrinsically interest me more than wealthy/upper class Brits. One has the zingers, the other the wardrobe, but I don't want to spend hours with either any more. In the copy I picked up from the library every God, Jesus, Christ & Goddamn were heavily crossed out in ballpoint, dimpling the pages.
