Butterfly</em> opens in the cramped prison cell where diplomat Rene Gallimard is being held captive by the French governmentand by his own illusions. In the darkness of his cell he recalls a time when desire seemed to give him wings. A time when Song Liling, the beautiful Chinese diva, touched him with a love as vivid, as seductiveand as elusiveas a butterfly.</p><p>How could he have known, then, that his ideal woman was, in fact, a spy for the Chinese governmentand a man disguised as a woman? In a series of flashbacks, the diplomat relives the twenty-year affair from the temptation to the seduction, from its consummation to the scandal that ultimately consumed them both. But in the end, there remains only one truth: Whether or not Gallimards passion was a flight of fancy, it sparked the most vigorous emotions of his life.</p><p>Only in real life could love become so unreal. And only in such a dramatic tour de force do we learn how a fantasy can become a mans mistressas well as his jailer. <em>M. Butterfly</em> is one of the most compelling, explosive, and slyly humorous dramas ever to light the Broadway stage, a work of unrivaled brilliance, illuminating the conflict between men and women, the differences between East and West, racial stereotypesand the shadows we cast around our most cherished illusions.</p><p><em>M. Butterfly</em> remains one of the most influential romantic plays of contemporary literature, and in 1993 was made into a film by David Cronenberg starring Jeremy Irons and John Lone.</p>...3553473M.
