The book begins with her account of her mother’s decline and death and the time she spent caring for her. Her partner is Johannes, whom she meets shortly after the death of her mother. ![]() We know very little of the narrator, except that she is a young woman of indeterminate age, though probably in her early thirties. I had to keep reminding myself that it’s a novel as we become so deeply embedded in the internal world of the unnamed first person narrator that it feels as if it is an autobiography. We are all mothers, spend way too much time talking about our kids and so the blurb, about one woman’s journey to parenthood, spoke directly to us. We love the Women’s Prize and always try to get through a couple on the shortlist.

To help the cast connect with Proulx’s story of a cowboy and a ranch hand falling in love against the wide-stretching landscapes of 1960s Wyoming, black-and-white photographs of American plains and mountain ranges were tacked to the walls during rehearsals. Last month, in a central London rehearsal studio, Butterell and Ashley Robinson, who wrote the play, tried to answer that question. In 2016, when the theater director Jonathan Butterell was considering a proposal to adapt Annie Proulx’s 1997 short story “ Brokeback Mountain” for the stage, he wondered how to translate the prose’s vast landscape and insular emotions into a play. ![]() ![]() ![]() KirkusThe busy, buzzy beastie introduced in Hi!
