DAVID HOWARD NEVER MET MABLEY, BUT SIMPLIFIED & DUMBED-DOWN MABLEY'S THOUGHTFUL & WIDE-RANGING BOOK, WHICH COVERS DRAMA FROM SOPHOCLES TO GIRAUDOUX TO WEISS' MARAT/SADE. MABLEY'S BOOK IS SADLY OUT OF EDITION. THERE ARE MANY BETTER BOOKS THAN THIS - TRY LINDA COWGILL, OR YVES LAVANDIER. HOWARD IS THE DECEASED FRANK DANIEL'S MOST AVID DISCIPLE, BUT LACKS DANIEL'S LEARNING, TALENT & INTUITION. I WORK FULL-TIME WITH PROFESSIONAL FILM WRITERS, & I'VE NEVER MET ONE WHO RATED HOWARD. SOMEONE SHOULD PUBLISH MABLEY'S ORIGINAL BOOK, WHICH FRANK DANIEL USED FOR TEACHING, AS IT'S EMBARRASSING TO SEE HIS NAME ON HOWARD'S BOOK AS IF THEY COLLABORATED.
