Plays, Prose, Pieces, Poetry

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Richard Ayoade edits and introduces this defining work of the great midcentury visionary of stage and screen -- rediscovered and republished by Faber & Faber.

Comprising Hughes's monumental works for the stage, poetry, lyrics, interviews, acceptance speeches, written warnings and wordless sketches, this essential volume includes extensive critical reflections by leading critics Augustus Pink, Chlo Clifton-Wright, Richard Ayoade, Leslie Francis (director of . . . And?!), and Hughes's final wife, Lady Virginia Lovilocke.

Plays, Prose, Pieces, Poetry collects together, for the first time, the dramas that made Hughes's name adjectival, in all new fonts, and exhaustively punctuated according to the instructions left in his last will and testament.
