Annotations / title notes

• Notes

  • "The Whale's Eyelash is a play written through the medium of 19th century microscope slides. The men who made these slides were known as mounters. Each slide contains a specific dramatic moment in a universe of its own, and together they tell the story of the Whale's Eyelash -- a story about what happens between the appearance of humankind and its passing away."
  • Index includes biographies of the mounters.
