iGirl
'Stylishly, mysteriously, and with a soaring imagination, Marina Carr has upended the definition of feminism.' Independent on Sunday

Girl on an Altar
'Mesmerisingly compelling . . . Carr's words are a delight to hear, even at their most bleak. Bracingly good.' Evening Standard

Audrey or Sorrow
'All facets of Marina Carr's precious mineral are on display in this startling play.' Irish Times

To the Lighthouse
'Gloriously ambitious and inventive . . . Woolf and Carr are an inspired match, the Irish playwright detecting the absolute truths of Woolf's work with laser-sharp focus and mining them to their fullest effect.' Irish Examiner

This collection also includes Gilgamesh, Carr's adaptation of the ancient Sumerian epic, a bold exploration of its enduring themes of power, love, mortality and our ruinous relationship to the natural world.
