Twelve Angry Men by Reginald Rose & David Mamet Book Summary

A landmark American drama that inspired a classic film and a Broadway revival—featuring an introduction by David Mamet

A blistering character study and an examination of the American melting pot and the judicial system that keeps it in check, Twelve Angry Men holds at its core a deeply patriotic faith in the U.S. legal system. The play centers on Juror Eight, who is at first the sole holdout in an 11-1 guilty vote. Eight sets his sights not on proving the other jurors wrong but rather on getting them to look at the situation in a clear-eyed way not affected by their personal prejudices or biases. Reginald Rose deliberately and carefully peels away the layers of artifice from the men and allows a fuller picture to form of them—and of America, at its best and worst.
 
After the critically acclaimed teleplay aired in 1954, this landmark American drama went on to become a cinematic masterpiece in 1957 starring Henry Fonda, for which Rose wrote the adaptation. More recently, Twelve Angry Men had a successful, and award-winning, run on Broadway.

BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!. MY TEACHER MR.GRAY READ IT WITH US, AND IT IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!

Thumbs up!. Quality book. Good read

Twelve angry men. Wow! I’ve been on several juries, some of which our initial vote was very different than our final vote. I felt like I was sitting in the jury room and experiencing this up close. Such a powerful play. I’d love to see it live. Great story that could have easily been true.

Horrible ending. Don't read if you want a good ending

Jexux05. I read this book in high school and loved it..... Now I'm 33 and still reading it, because I don't get tired of it.....

This game Dudu. Dudu

Yes. Yummy

Thriller. This game Dudu “Daequan” Fortnite life, bruh.

Not too unexpected but shocking result. I loved seeing the characters really challenge them selves see something different in the case to the end it wasn’t a clear case and they all were slowly realizing it whether they wanted to or not, arguing with each other to really figure everything out, it felt stressful, I felt annoyance, I felt anxiety, sturn, doubtful etc feeling from every juror in the room even the foreman who I was waiting to hear more for just to remember he was listening and waiting just like I was to here all the facts to really give an answer. I chose not guilty, for reasonable doubt. Seeing that so many jurors were still not sure was interesting, but their reasoning was even more intriguing.
