The Peasants' Lament — Gary Newsom

Is this a novel or a play? Maybe it's a novel play. It's certainly NOT a playful novel. This is the story of five young people at their high school homecoming one year after graduation. An intense drama about young people seeking their way in life. Or something like that. Just read it, then you'll know! If you decide to stage this drama, please remit $25 to me. Yes, I'm cheap. You should know this by now! Thank you. And if you can figure out what the title means, please let me know. I'd like to know myself!
