Harold Pinter: Plays 4

This revised third volume of Harold Pinter's work includes <i>The Homecoming</i>, <i>Old Times</i>, <i>No Man's Land</i>, four shorter plays, six revue sketches and a short story. It also contains the speech given by Pinter in 1970 on being awarded the German Shakespeare Prize.<br><br> <i>The Homecoming</i><br> 'Of all Harold Pinter's major plays, <i>The Homecoming</i> has the most powerful narrative line... You are fascinated, lured on, sucked into the vortex.' <i>Sunday Telegraph</i><br><br> 'The most intense expression of compressed violence to be found anywhere in Pinter's plays.' <i>The Times</i><br><br> <i>Old Times</i><br> 'A rare quality of high tension is evident, revealing in <i>Old Times</i> a beautifully controlled and expressive formality that has seldom been achieved since the plays of Racine.' <i>Financial Times</i><br><br> 'Harold Pinter's poetic, Proustian <i>Old Times</i> has the inscrutability of a mysterious picture, and the tension of a good thriller.' <i>Independent</i><br><br> <i>No Man's Land</i><br> 'The work of our best living playwright in its command of the language and its power to erect a coherent structure in a twilight zone of confusion and dismay.' <i>The Times</i>
