Description
Six masterful works by the Nobel Prize-winning Nigerian playwright.
Death and the King's Horseman: 'A transfixing work of modern world drama' - Independent
Madmen and Specialists: 'A luminous play, examining the way in which war exposes and clarifies human conduct' - Observer
Opera Wonyosi, adapted from Gay's The Beggar's Opera: 'Swaggering and scabrous, at once a verbal spree and a fierce assault on totalitarianism' - Observer
The volume also contains The Trials of Brother Jero and Jero's Metamorphosis, classic comedies of modern Nigerian life based on the hilarious and manipulative transformations of a preacher, and Camwood on the Leaves, a haunting radio play, which evokes a divided community.
