First sentence: WITH THE EXCEPTION of a three-act sex farce I composed when I was twelve-the action of which occurred aboard an ocean liner, the characters of which were, for the most part, English gentry, and the title of which was, for some reason that escapes me now, Aliqueen-with the exception of that, The Zoo Story (1958), The Death of Bessie Smith, and The Sandbox (both 1959), are my first three plays.
