This research paper: This is a 5 page reading note with some tutorial language (in square brackets) describing Anna Deavere Smith’s book and play “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992”. Anna Deavere Smith’s “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992” is a book based on over 200 interviews Smith conducted accounting the riots and Rodney King beating which took place in Los Angeles in 1992. The book and the interviews are meant as a basis for her one woman play which depicts twenty-five of the fifty interviews documented in the book. The book is divided into several sections which provide various accounts from different perspectives in reaction to the events in 1992. Despite the dire content however, Smith manages to include the right amount of satire, humor, harsh reality and unforgettable characters for the reader and also shows her great range as a writer and as an actor in her characterizations. The book also includes several images from the riots and a chronological listing of the events. Bibliography lists 1 source.
