After hearing Mamet's most recent comments, I reread some of his work through a new lens. Glengarry Glen Ross. American Buffalo. They are actually just ultra- macho, white male propaganda disguised as art about the human experience. It seems so obvious now. Because of the cadence and rhythm of his language, people thought he had something new to say. That his characters were nuanced and modern. In fact his story is as old as those who persecuted Socrates.

I really enjoy your art.
