Highlighting Weldon Kees's contributions to film and television, this collection features two screen stories and a stage play adapted for TV. "Assignment to Peril" is a Cold War thriller, while "Gadabout" offers a chilling glimpse into the CIA's MKUltra project. The latter includes a brainstorming transcript, showcasing Kees's creative process. The stage play, "The Waiting Room," is thought to be his final work before his mysterious disappearance in 1955. With insights from biographer James Reidel, the collection sheds light on Kees's unique artistic vision during postwar America.
