A beautiful hardcover selection of the most memorable and beloved lyrics of America’s greatest composer and lyricist, Stephen Sondheim. AN EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET POET.
Legendary composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim (1930–2021) made his Broadway debut with West Side Story in 1957 at the age of twenty-seven. Along his remarkable and wide-ranging career spanning more than six decades, he accumulated accolades that include eight Tony Awards, an Academy Award, eight Grammy Awards, six Laurence Olivier Awards, a Pulitzer Prize, the Kennedy Center Honors, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom. Sondheim redefined musical theater with his groundbreaking work, combining words and music in ways that are by turns challenging, moving, witty, profound, and never less than exhilarating.
This volume includes a selection of lyrics from across his career, drawn from shows including West Side Story, Gypsy, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, Sunday in the Park with George, Into the Woods, and more, including:
• “Somewhere” from West Side Story
• “Momma’s Talkin’ Soft” from Gypsy
• “A Hero is Coming” from Anyone Can Whistle
• “Someone Like You” from Do I Hear A Waltz
• “Being Alive” from Company
• “The Road You Didn’t Take” from Follies
• “Send in the Clowns” from A Little Night Music
• “Not While I’m Around” from Sweeney Todd
• “Sunday” from Sunday in the Park with George
• “Children Will Listen” from Into the Woods
The result is a delightful pocket-sized treasury of the very best of Sondheim.

We based our evaluation of book condition on the following criteria:
* New: Just like it sounds. A brand-new, unused, unread copy in perfect condition.
* Like New: An apparently unread copy in perfect condition. Dust cover is intact; pages are clean and are not marred by notes or folds of any kind.
* Very Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in excellent condition. Pages are intact and are not marred by notes or highlighting, but may contain a neat previous owner name. The spine remains undamaged.
* Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact. The spine may show signs of wear. Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include "From the library of" labels or previous owner inscriptions.
* Acceptable: A readable copy. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact (the dust cover may be missing). Pages can include considerable notes--in pen or highlighter--but the notes cannot obscure the text.
