Winner of the 2017 Tony Award for Best Musical
“Dear Evan Hansen lodges in your head long after you’ve seen it or heard it or read it. It feels like a pure expression from young writers at a crossroad of coming to terms with who they are and what they want to say about the world. Its honesty and truths haunt and ultimately open us up to ask the same question, no matter what our age or crossroad: What are the lies we tell ourselves?” –James Lapine (from the Foreword)
A letter that was never meant to be seen, a lie that was never meant to be told, a life he never dreamed could be his. Evan Hansen is about to get the one thing he’s always wanted: a chance to belong. Deeply personal and profoundly universal, Dear Evan Hansen is a groundbreaking American musical about truth, fiction, and the price we’re willing to pay for the possibility to connect.
*This publication includes the book and lyrics to the musical, as well as a foreword by James Lapine. Please note that it does not include the musical score.*

Älykäs, hauska ja traaginen romaani valheesta ja sen seurauksista
Yksinkertainen valhe johtaa monimutkaisten totuuksien vyyhtiin hykerryttävässä tarinassa ajastamme, jolloin ollaan pakonomaisesti esillä ja toisaalta jäädään kipeästi syrjään.
Kun Evan Hansenin kirje päätyy perheelle, joka suree kuollutta poikaansa, Evan saa elämänsä tilaisuuden: hänelle tarjoutuu mahdollisuus kuulua johonkin. Evanin on vain teeskenneltävä, että hän oli ongelmallisen Connor Murphyn salainen paras ystävä.
Yhtäkkiä Evan ei ole enää näkymätön – edes unelmiensa tytölle.
Connorin vanhemmat kutsuvat hänet elämäänsä kuullakseen lisää pojastaan. Mitä syvemmälle vanhempien tuskan syövereihin Evan uppoaa, hän tajuaa, ettei ole oikealla polulla, mutta jos hänen valheensa auttavat surevia omaisia, mitä haittaa niistä voi olla?
Entinen Evan oli lamaantunut, uuden Evanin elämässä on tarkoitus. Jokainen päivä on mahtava! Kunnes kaikki valheet alkavat purkautua ja Evanin on kohdattava elämänsä isoin este: itsensä.
Val Emmich on kirjailija, laulaja-lauluntekijä ja näyttelijä. Hänen toinen romaaninsa Dear Evan Hansen perustuu Broadway-menestysmusikaaliin, ja hän kirjoitti sen yhdessä tuotantoryhmän jäsenten Steven Levensonin, Benj Pasekin ja Justin Paulin kanssa. Lue lisää: valemmich.com
