** 50% DISCOUNT **
This volume contains everything Brendan Behan wrote in dramatic form in English including the three famous full-length plays ...
The Quare Fellow, set in an Irish prison - "In Brendan Behan's tremendous new play language is out on a spree, ribald, dauntless and spoiling for a fight ... with superb dramatic tact, the tragedy is concealed beneath layer after layer of rough comedy" - Observer
The Hostage, set in a Dublin lodging-house of doubtful repute where a young English soldier is being kept prisoner - "shouts, sings, thunders and stamps with life ... a masterpiece" - The Times
Richard's Cork Leg, set in a graveyard - "a joyous celebration of life" Guardian
The volume also contains three one-act plays, originally written
for radio and all intensely autobiographical, Moving Out, A Garden Party
& The Big House
