Demons on Governors Island

The August issue of Open Letters Monthly is now up. There is a lot of film and theater in this issue, in addition to its usual high-quality literary reviews and literature. I offer my assessment of Peter Stein's production of The Demons, a 12-hour performance on Governors Island a few weeks ago. I learned about the play from my friend Anne Eakin Moss, a Russian literature professor at Johns Hopkins. Anne offers her two cents, as well.
