Brian Friel is Ireland”s foremost living playwright, whose work spans fifty years and has won numerous awards, including three Tonys and a Lifetime Achievement Arts Award. Author of twenty-five plays, and whose work is studied at GCSE and A level (UK), and the Leaving Certificate (Ire), besides at undergraduate level, he is regarded as a classic in contemporary drama studies. Christopher Murray”s Critical Companion is the definitive guide to Friel”s work, offering both a detailed study of individual plays and an exploration of Friel”s dual commitment to tradition and modernity across his oeuvre.
