At Home at the Zoo: Homelife and the Zoo Story

For the first time in one volume, Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright Edward Albee’s At Home at the Zoo collects Homelife and The Zoo Story.

“An essential and heartening experience . . . If Homelife is an openhanded slap, The Zoo Story is a gut punch with a closed fist. Edward Albee is a voice unparalleled in American theater.” —New York Times

More than 50 years after penning The Zoo Story, master playwright Edward Albee wrote a prequel to this classic. Homelife contains the events in Peter’s life immediately preceding his encounter with Jerry on the park bench and is every bit as powerful as the original. We meet Ann, Peter’s wife, and see the conversation that compelled Peter to go for that fateful walk in the park.
