Look, I Made a Hat

The second volume of Stephen Sondheim's collected lyrics, Look, I Made a Hat, gives readers another look into the brilliant mind of this living legend, and his work. Picking up where he left off in Finishing the Hat: Lyrics 1950-1981 (New York Times 10 Best Books of 2010), Sondheim gives us all the lyrics, along with excluded songs and early drafts, of the Pulitzer Prize–winning Sunday in the Park with George, Into the Woods, Assassins and Passion. Here, too, is an in-depth look at the evolution of Wise Guys (which subsequently became Bounce and eventually Road Show) and Sondheim's contributions to both television and film.
