Paperback / softback
Description
In The Friends (1970), Esther is diagnosed with leukaemia, causing her friends to reassess their working-class identity, their imagined achievements as well as their own mortality.
Bluey (1993) is a play about repressed memory resurfacing and three imagined futures that the protagonist cannot muster the courage to confront.
In Men Die Women Survive (1990) a trio of estranged wives gather around the dinner table.
As they conduct a post-mortem on their failed relationships a tale of betrayal and revenge emerges.
Telling the story of a 44-year-old actress Gertie and her influence on Sam, a black teenager working as a car-park attendant, Wild Spring (1992) explores acting as a metaphor for the false images of ourselves with which we fall in love.
