The Authorised Kate Bane: NHB Modern Plays

Autor Ella Hickson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 aug 2013
A painfully comic excavation of a family history that asks if there is an authorized version of the past - or just the one we can live with.

Kate Bane returns home to her parents for a winter weekend to introduce her new boyfriend. As the snow falls, Kate finds herself searching with increasing desperation for the truth about her family's past. Are her memories fact, or are they continually shifting acts of imagination?

Unable to pin down the truth, can she write a version of the family mythology that will ensure her own happiness?

Recenzii

"Couples the uncertainty of Six Characters in Search of an Author with the soul-bearing family relevations of a minor Tennessee Williams play." - Guardian

"Fascinating... an Escher-like playfulness in its examination of the nature of creation." - The Stage

"An amusing piece, well-crafted." - The List
