A Piece of My Heart
By
Shirley Lauro

Published by Samuel French, Inc.

"There is real power in this script...what I connected to is the sense of the fractured, dislocated self...Each person said, 'I feel like I'm someone else. I can't get back that piece of myself.' I have experienced that sense of dislocation -- missing in action, physically present but 'if only they knew what turmoil I carry with me' sort of feeling."

- Director Elizabeth Appleby
