Anatomy of a Suicide Paperback / softback

Part of the Modern Classics series

Paperback / softback

Description

"Alice Birch’s new play is scored like a piece of music ...

It is an extraordinary echoing text, full of pain and strange beauty.

The three stories play out simultaneously on stage, the dialogue from one scene overlapping with the other two in a manner that borders on the choral ...

Birch has provided a text that explores these ideas in a formally invigorating way." The StageThree generations of women.

For each, the chaos of what has come before brings with it a painful legacy. A powerful, unflinching look at a family afflicted with severe depression and mental illness.

Presented as a triptych of plays performed side by side, this groundbreaking play reverberates with audiences and readers.

Published for the first time in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, this edition features a brand new introduction by Ava Davies.
