Full Description


Each volume in the "About" series contains an introduction to a specific writer, which sets his work in the relevant social and political context; a digest of interviews given by the writer; new material, specially gathered for this publication, including conversations with the author, directors, actors, and other theatre workers; and an annotated bibliography. Victoria Stewart considers the social and political situation into which O'Casey was born and traces the path which led him to an association with theatre in the early 1920s and the turns his career took after he made the decision to leave Ireland for good. The book compiles a useful dossier of interviews with O'Casey and others who worked with him, and in total, provides a clear and useful resource on the work of one of Ireland's major writers.
