Though never elected to office, he manipulated those who were through a mix of guile, charm and intimidation. Motivated at first by a determination to improve the lives of New York City's workers, he created parks, bridges and 627 miles of expressway to connect the people to the great outdoors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But in the 1950s, groups of citizens began to organize against his schemes and against the motor car, campaigning for a very different idea of what a city should be. David Hare's blazing account of a man - played by Ralph Fiennes - whose iron will exposed the weakness of democracy in the face of charismatic conviction, premieres at the Bridge Theatre, London, in March 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Published: UK, 2022\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Publisher: Faber \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePages: 144\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLanguages: English \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e ISBN 13: 9780571363049\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e ISBN 10:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Hare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43674348847370,"sku":"","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/products\/9780571363049.jpg?v=1660474587","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/straight-line-crazy","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
