Untitled Monologue is a study of a young man (first met in Daniel Keene's Homeland). The young man has moved to the city and found himself a room in a cheap boarding house. The text takes the form of letters to his father (which remain unanswered). As the play progresses, his optimism, his affection and his strength are slowly eroded by economic and social forces that begin to overwhelm him. It's a masterful study of aching loneliness and the power of this young man's courage and faith.
