The scripts deal with the destruction of four targeted populations: Armenians in Lorne Shirinian's \u003ci\u003eExile in the Cradle\u003c\/i\u003e, Cambodians in Catherine Filloux's \u003ci\u003eSilence of God\u003c\/i\u003e, Bosnian Muslims in Kitty Felde's \u003ci\u003eA Patch of Earth\u003c\/i\u003e, and Rwandan Tutsis in Erik Ehn's \u003ci\u003eMaria Kizito\u003c\/i\u003e. Taken together, these four plays erase the boundaries of theatrical realism to present stories that probe the actions of the perpetrators and the suffering of their victims. A major artistic contribution to the study of the history and effects of genocide, this collection carries on the important journey toward understanding the terror and trauma to which the modern world has so often been witness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Skloot is professor in the Department of Theater and Drama and in the Center for Jewish Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
