The only book to treat in detail all the plays of contemporary English playwright David Storey, this study focuses on the major themes found in his work: the worlds of madness, work, and the family. Storey's developing technique as a dramatist is closely examined and attention is given to his experimental concerns. In addition, Liebman identifies relationships between Storey's fiction and his drama, highlighting how similar themes and characters appear in both his novels and his plays. The study also includes discussion of contemporary thinking on Storey by scholars, critics, and theatre professionals.
HERBERT LIEBMAN is emeritus Professor of English at The College of Staten Island, City University of New York. He is an NEA-Award winning playwright and has published short stories in Confrontation, Chelsea, Paris Transcontinental, Midstream, and Pen Syndicated Fiction Project.
