He Speaks: Monologues for Men
Compiled and edited by David Ferry
A collection of contemporary Canadian
monologues for men, intended for auditions, study
or general interest.
Sometimes [the author] will talk about horror, sometimes about love. Sometimes
the love they examine is also the horror they expose. They will look at memories
and sort them or they will rage at the machine. They will seek to find their
identity in the shifting sands of an ever-changing universe. They will throw
up images of stark beauty or complex ugliness; propose maxims with deep moral
implications or question slippery ethical standards; they will juxtapose the
ludicrous with the divine and they will mock, glorify, penetrate or expose just
about everything in society. All these will our authors do to discover the only
one great thing'the story.
