The Cambridge Companion to Brian Friel
Brian Friel is widely recognized as Ireland's greatest living playwright, winning an international reputation through such acclaimed works as Translations (1980) and Dancing at Lughnasa (1990). This 2006 collection of specially commissioned essays includes contributions from leading commentators on Friel's work (including two fellow playwrights) and explores the entire range of his career from his 1964 breakthrough with Philadelphia, Here I Come!…
‘Pessaries of Grace’
‘Poems’, Durrell jotted in a notebook in the 1970s, ‘are pessaries of grace’.1 The statement, cryptic though it may appear, is more than a Durrellian squib.

Previously the question had led, like a leitmotif, towa…
