Thunder in the Index
Author(s):
Phillip Hayes Dean
The action takes place in the psychiatric ward of a large city hospital, where Joshua Noon, a hip young black, lies bound in a strait jacket. His pleas to be unshackled lead to a sharp, funny and exacerbating verbal duel with the attending physician, Dr. Goldberg, in which the disparate, and perhaps irreconcilable, worlds of the two men are brought vividly into focus. But, ironically, the self-assured Dr. Goldberg is ultimately revealed to be an escaped patient himself, which leaves, in the end, the tantalizing question: Who is really mad, the kept or the keeper?
