About this book

Donald Margulies' fascinating and insightful play 'Time Stands Still' explores the nuances of a relationship between a photojournalist and a foreign correspondent. They are now rooted in their Brooklyn flat, having once become addicted to the rush of recording wartime atrocities. Sarah, a photographer who was gravely hurt while photographing the war in Iraq,

is grieving the loss of her former lover and Iraqi driver who was killed in the explosion. James, one of her journalistic partners reviews movies online in the interim. The play explores topics of artistic expression and poses the question of what it means to depict pain on screen as opposed to taking action. It's a topical examination of trauma, love, and the effects of living through history.
