Review

The script of Shepard's three-act drama about a desperate man trying to hold onto his wife and career is set against a backdrop of professional horse racing. Pulitzer-winner Shepard structures his latest exploration of new American archetypes as a detective story.

From the Back Cover

Carter ought to be managing his thoroughbred business is Kentucky. Instead, he is in a desolate room in Cucamonga, Nowheresville, U.S.A., trying to get back in the good graces of Vinnie, the one man who has the power to destroy him. From the beginning, Sam Shepard's Simpatico launches us into the world of horse racing, where high society meets the low life and the line between winners and losers is as treacherously thin as a razor blade.
