 "The final dying sounds of their dress rehearsal left the Laurel Players with nothing to do but stand there, silent and helpless, blinking out over the footlights of an empty auditorium." -from Revolutionary Road, which has one of the greatest opening chapters of any modern novel I can think of; well worth the read if you have the chance. Also, here's an excellent biography of the man by Blake Bailey. Happy Birthday, Mr. Yates!
