Behan Complete Plays
Brendan Behan
This volume contains everything Brendan Behan wrote in dramatic form in English
Contains the three famous full-length plays: The Quare Fellow, set in an Irish prison ( In Brendan Behan’s tremendous new play language is out on a spree, ribald, dauntless and spoiling for a fight … with superb dramatic tact, the tragedy is concealed beneath layer after layer of rough comedy Observer); The Hostage, set in a Dublin lodging-house of doubtful repute where a young English soldier is being kept prisoner, shouts, sings, thunders and stamps with life…a masterpiece (The Times); and Richard’s Cork Leg, set in a graveyard, a joyous celebration of life (Guardian). The volume also contains three one-act plays, originally written for radio and all intensely autobiographical, Moving Out, A Garden Party and The Big House.
