Call Me By My Rightful Name
Author(s):
Michael Shurtleff
As told by Oppenheimer: "An honest, moving and courageous drama that holds your attention right up to its touching ending. It tells the tale of two Columbia students rooming together in New York: Doug is white, a young rebel, fearful of doing anything that will stamp him with the mark of conformity; Paul is a Negro, attractive, a good student... Then a white girl falls in love with Doug...There is talk of marriage but when Paul reveals that he once loved the girl for a brief period, there is a brutal battle in which Doug is badly injured. The aftermath of this explosion, the shame of both of the men, and the attempts of the girl to bring them together are explored with devastating honesty...Shurtleff endows his characters with a sense of humor and the gift of laughter, they are highly individualized and sensitively characterized."
