The Swimmer
Author(s):
F. Xavier Hogan
The SWIMMER is a highly theatrical contemporary comedy. The story involves a young man at a corner bus stop who is absolutely convinced he is drowning though there is no water in the vicinity. Each person who passes by becomes somehow involved in the situation, but each is more interested in promoting his own point of view than helping the man. One woman calls him a bore; a policeman writes him a ticket; a business man throws him a quarter. The play builds to a climax in which the young man dies -- yet his death has no emotional impact upon those around him.
