SIX UNEMPLOYED BUFFALO STEELWORKERS, LOW ON BOTH CASH AND JOB PROSPECTS, DECIDE TO PRESENT A STRIP ACT AT A LOCAL CLUB TO EARN MONEY AND THEIR WIVES AFFECTIONS.

EVERY WINTER I FEEL COMPELLED TO RE-READ ANNA KARENINA—SOMETHING ABOUT THE ICY INDIANA NIGHTS MAKES ME SYMPATHETIC WITH TOLSTOY'S MOSCOW AND ST. PETERSBURG. EACH TIME I READ THE BOOK, I AM SHOCKED BY THE BREADTH AND SCOPE OF TOLSTOY'S ASTONISHING VISION. "A NOVELIST IS SOMEONE ON WHOM NOTHING IS LOST", HENRY ^^ JAMES ONCE WROTE, AND VERY LITTLE SLIPPED PAST THE K^ lfc GREAT RUSSIAN WRITER. THE RICH PANORAMA OF CHARACTERS, THE SHARP INSIGHTS INTO HUMAN BEHAVIOR, THE ALMOST CAPRICIOUS BLENDING OF COINCEDENCE AND INEVITABILITY—THERE IS A SHORT LIST OF GREAT NOVELS IN LITERATURE, AND VIRTUALLY FROM ITS PUBLICATION ANNA KARENINA HAS BEEN ON IT. AND YET, EVERY TIME I READ IT, I DREAD THE FINAL CHAPTERS. ANNA'S VIOLENT SUICIDE IS DESCRIBED SO HARROWINGLY THAT I ALWAYS WANT TO SKIP AHEAD AND GET TO THE HAPPIER, MORE OPTIMISTIC RESOLUTIONS THAT THE NOVEL PROVIDES. YET I DON'T. I FORCE MYSELF TO READ THOSE DIFFICULT PAGES, KNOWING THAT THE GREATNESS OF ANNA KARENINA WOULD BE DIMINISHED WITHOUT THEM. THERE ARE DIFFICULT PARTS IN SHADOWLANDS, TO BE SURE, TRAGIC, UNFAIR ELEMENTS THAT AS A PERSON I WOULD PREFER NOT TO THINK ABOUT. YET I MUST, BECAUSE NOT DOING IT WOULD BE CHEATING, AND UNFAIR—so MUCH OF WILLIAM NICHOLSON'S PLAY IS INFUSED WITH LOVE, ROBUST HUMOR, AND JOY THAT IT WOULD BE A SHAME IF I DIDN'T KEEP MY EYES OPENED TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE STORY. HAPPINESS AND PAIN ARE A PART OF THE EQUATION IN SHADOWLANDS, AS THE TWO CONTRADICTORY FORCES SEEM TO MOVE IN TANDEM WITH EACH OTHER, OFTEN DOVETAILING TOGETHER. YOU CAN'T SEPARATE THEM, JOY GRESHAM TELLS C.S. LEWIS AT ONE POINT. IF YOU WANT ONE, YOU BETTER BE READY FOR THE OTHER. THAT'S THE DEAL. - CHRIS COLCORD
