$28.99 Published by Methuen
One of Britain's greatest living contemporary dramatists, Edward Bond is widely studied by schools and colleges. The collection includes a commentary by the author
The Bundle - "A complex and marvellously written play" ~ The Times
Jackets - "An astonishingly powerful piece of political, polemic poetry" ~ Guardian
Human Cannon charts the struggle against Fascism in Spain through the stories of the village community of Estarobon; In the Company of Men, a vivid and coruscating attack on the values encapsulated by boardroom power games, was described by the RSC as "a vast meditation on the twenty-first century"
Edward Bond "is one of the two or three major playwrights - and arguably the only one - to emerge since the fifties" ~ Observer
