Description
Charles Lamb's in-depth study of Howard Barker's work explores the emotional resonance of his characters and their interactions. This fully revised edition delves into the 'scene of seduction', examining the challenge, secret, abject, and catastrophic processes that dominate Barker's plays. Lamb argues that the power of Barker's work lies in its exposure to the irrational, promoting a state of unknowing. The book includes new insights from Barker himself, as well as an updated bibliography and production chronology, making it a valuable resource for students and professionals working with Barker's unique material. For those seeking to understand the complexities of Barker's plays, this edition offers a comprehensive and illuminating analysis.
