This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cork Street, Next To The Hatter’s is part of Pamela Hansford Johnson’s ‘Dorothy Merlin Trilogy’, along with The Unspeakable Skipton and Night and Silence, Who Is Here? Described as ‘A novel in bad taste’, the story follows a reluctant don, Tom Hariot, taken to the theatre by Cosmo Hines, husband to the once-notorious Dorothy, to see the latest and least lovely in the current wave of plays. Appalled, Tom’s surprising reaction is to devote himself to the academic exercise of writing a play of such unparalleled obscenity and sadism that no manager or theatre would dare or wish to present. Innocent that he is, he thinks there can be a limit and strives to be the one that defines it.

Download or read book Prick Up Your Ears written by John Lahr and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVThis mesmerizing story of playwright and author Joe Orton’s brief and remarkable life was named book of the year by Truman Capote and Nobel Prize–winning novelist Patrick White /divDIV Told with precision and extensive detail, Prick Up Your Ears is the engrossing biography of playwright and novelist Joe Orton. Orton’s public career spanned only three years (1964–1967), but his work made a lasting mark on the international stage. From Entertaining Mr. Sloane to his career-making Loot, Orton’s plays often shocked, sometimes outraged, and always captivated audiences with their dark yet farcical cynicism. A rising star and undeniable talent, Orton left much undone when he was bludgeoned to death by his lover, Kenneth Halliwell, who had educated Orton and also dreamed of becoming a famous writer. /divDIV /divDIVPrick Up Your Ears was the basis for the distinguished 1987 film of the same name, directed by Stephen Frears, with a screenplay by Alan Bennett, and starring Gary Oldman and Vanessa Redgrave. A brilliant, page-turning examination of the dueling forces behind Orton’s work, Prick Up Your Ears secured the playwright’s reputation as a great twentieth-century artist./div
