David Hare

by Joan FitzPatrick Dean

Book Overview

Dean explores the life and social milieu of Hare in an attempt to show how plays such as Plenty and Wetherby, socio-political dramas of despair and disillusionment, reflect post-World-War-II society. The book examines Hare's position as a dramatist and social critic, especially the way in which familiar dramatic themes like romance are applied to the socio-political content.
